Supplies
Pint mason jars
Aquarium rocks in the color of your choice
Wood beads
Jute twine
Air plants
Hot glue and glue gun

Instructions
Start by adding the aquarium rocks to the bottom of your jars. Fill each jar about 1/4 of the way full.
Secure the end of some jute twine with hot glue to one side of the threaded area of the jar.
Wrap the twine around the jar a few times.
Secure with another drop of hot glue on the side.
Tie a knot that will rest over the top of the drop of hot glue.
Then come up 3 to 4 inches and tie a triple knot.
Thread on three wood beads.
Tie another triple knot on the other side of the beads to hold them into place.
Go down 3 -4 inches and tie a knot. Secure this knot into place on the opposite side of the jar with hot glue.
Continue wrapping more twine around the threads until the knots are covered.
Secure the final end with some additional hot glue.
Add your air plant into the jar and hang anywhere you like!
