Luke and my best friend Kate are just perplexed why I love drinking out of glass jars rather than a traditional glass. I always say with the glass jar and the straw make the water taste much better. They both think i'm a bit mad because of it! I spotted this wedding and thought, this event has the same passion of jars as a drinking glass as me, and, the styling is just so mighty pretty!

p.s if anyone has tried to send me an email via the shop e-form and I have not replied, unfortunately I have not been receiving all emails. Please resend to: support@adaanddarcy.com.au xx
If you were raised in Australia in the 1970's & 80's you would have grown up drinking from a vegemite glass which you reused after all the black spreadable stuff was cleaned out!! As someone who doesn't drink alcohol, at parties i like to drink mineral water from a stemmed glass, but i do love a solid double old fashioned tumbler at home. Not too far from a jar really, love Posie
ReplyDeleteDrinking out of the jam jars is a very old American move to do. And, not usually filled with water, but rather some homemade Moonshine.
ReplyDeleteCheers!
I love glass jars! So pretty and you can use them for so many things!
ReplyDeleteLuvs!

So cute...I am with you my friend. xoxoxo
ReplyDeleteThat's beautiful.
ReplyDeleteMy sister drinks out of large mason jars, she says it makes her drink more, the larger the vessel. I love straws... it makes everything better!!
Cute post!! I really love that table setting. It's simple & elegant. And, the jars give an interesting touch.
ReplyDeleteI have never saw that before, don't think they ever do that in Ireland :-) I might start a new craze. Love your blog, it is fabulous!!! So so pretty, I'll be stopping by from now on. If you get time pop over to my little blog where I try to sprinkle a little happiness into everyones life...
ReplyDeleteAll things nice...
Well then I am weird too......its all we use!!
ReplyDeleteI'm a lover of drinking out of the mason jar myself and my hubby and family think I'm crazy too :-)

ReplyDeleteI adore this look...chic and casual!!
ReplyDeletelove this idea, it's quirky and I love quirky :o)
ReplyDeleteJars are a brilliant way to go. These shots remind me of why summer weddings are so fantastic.
ReplyDeleteThank god I'm not the only one! I think a glass jar with a stripey straw does good things for your soul.
ReplyDeleteLovely table settings Kellie!
ReplyDeleteYep...we used old jelly jars as glasses...my mom fancied herself a pioneer ;}. Those tables are simply gorgeous!
ReplyDeletem ^..^

Never drank from a jar but will try that ... I like trying new things. I do love flowers in jars though.
ReplyDeleteKellie, I dont think I have congratulated you yet on your on-line store. Well done its unreal. Sandy x
ReplyDeleteSee you in the twitter-verse! So excited
ReplyDeleteI LOVE those jars!!
ReplyDeleteI never thought of this before but what a cool, enchanting idea!
ReplyDeletevery romantic. The last table setting is gorgeous. Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea. Like Posie, I'm sure I drank out of an old vegemite jar back in the day. Haven't done so for a while but I think you may have just inspired me to give it a crack again. Gorgeous shots.
ReplyDeleteLove glass jars.They have so many uses.Flowers, buttons,sand and seashells.Lots more.
ReplyDeleteHappy Wednesday!
Very sweet table setting and a sweet pecadillo. :) xox Alexandra
ReplyDeleteI always have one of those filled with water near me :)
ReplyDeleteI think glass jars are so cute! I prefer to drink from them with a straw and not with my mouth against the rim :)
ReplyDeleteLove the table setting- stunning. And the mason jars look so cute:)
ReplyDeleteI finally asked a friend where she got her cute glasses and she told me they were jam jars! I couldn't believe it. I loved them. I'm also a straw girl myself.
ReplyDeleteKellie, it is so good to be back here again today. Your site has changed as well! ;) I love your style and this idea of the glass jars. I have always liked them also but not sure why, though I cannot say that I drink from them. I do like the big rootbeer mugs and have a thing for uniquely styled goblets and fancy wine glasses. I am still rebuilding my collection but particularly one that comes to mind is a gold broken glass look on the bottom -it feels like Renaissance. Have a beautiful day! hugs, Jenn
ReplyDeleteThe first time I saw someone drinking from a jar was when I lived and worked in Paris. One of my co-workers , a Dutch guy, would do this frequently. At the time I thought it was strange but also very cool!
ReplyDeleteSo cute! Looks like a country wedding. Very fresh and fun.
ReplyDeleteWell, deary, that means that we'll be "mad" together! I save all my honey jars, wash them out and use them for water classes too!
ReplyDeleteI have never heard of or seen that. It's really a bit crazy. But I should try it some time.
ReplyDeleteAh, kindred spirits. I drink from jars (with straws), too. They are so practical - inexpensive and durable. Love it!
ReplyDeleteLeigha
SO simple but elegant! LOVEIT!
ReplyDeletethat's a cute strange habit! :)
ReplyDeleteI think it's not odd to drink using jar. It's unique and beautiful, especially the picture above. Nice combination.
ReplyDeleteMy main glasses look like those glass jars, except they have handles. I love this look :-)
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
