5 DIY Spirit Jars to Invite Positive Energy into Your Home
How I Turned Simple Jars into Little Altars of Intention and Light
It all started when I found an empty glass jar on my windowsill. It had once held honey, and I had left it there for weeks, unsure what to do with it. But something about it caught my eye that morning. Maybe it was the way the sun hit it, or the quiet in the room, but an idea sparked: What if this could be more than just a jar? What if it could be a vessel for energy?
That thought opened a door I didn’t know I needed to walk through.
I started researching, gathering herbs, stones, and tiny trinkets that meant something to me. What I created that day became my first spirit jar—a personal talisman, filled with intention and magic, designed to radiate positive energy into my space.
Since then, I’ve made dozens—for peace, protection, abundance, clarity. Today, I’m sharing my 5 favorite DIY spirit jars with you. These are beginner-friendly, beautiful to display, and powerful to keep close.
Let’s make some magic together. 🕯️
🌟 Tip: Your energy is the key ingredient
Before we dive into the crafts, here’s a little reminder: these jars work because you put your intention into them. It’s not about fancy supplies or perfect aesthetics. It’s about what feels right to you.
Here’s what you’ll need for any spirit jar:
A clean glass jar (any size works)
Herbs, crystals, and natural elements
A tag or label (optional)
A personal item or symbol (a charm, coin, or word)
A candle or incense for setting intention
Light your candle, take a deep breath, and start with an open heart. Now, let’s build your jars…
