520    "Learn how to make more than 50 Mason jar projects, 
       including luminaries, planters, and upcycled art, in this 
       eagerly anticipated book for DIYers!Mason Jar Nation 
       begins by exploring the Mason jar's impact on America 
       since its 1858 patent. Prior to the jar's invention, 
       settlers had no reliable and safe way to store food for 
       the winter, which required them to travel great lengths in
       difficult conditions and obtain expensive canned goods in 
       order to survive. With its hermetically sealable two-piece
       lid and thick glass sides, the Mason jar changed the way 
       mid-nineteenth century Americans fed their families. 
       Although the popularity of the jars ebbed significantly 
       from the 1950s until the turn of the century, interest in 
       them has exploded in the past few years. Ball, the biggest
       brand name in Mason jars today, has seen its sales double 
       since 2001. Younger generations, including Millenials, 
       have adopted the iconic jars as emblems of a more 
       sustainable time. The humble Mason jar has been 
       "discovered" as a versatile and beautiful material for 
       creating craft items such as chandeliers, luminaries, 
       planters, containers, and upcycled art. The second half of
       Mason Jar Nation features over 50 of these adaptations, 
       shown with clear photography, all designed and 
       photographed by author JoAnn Moser, the "DIY Maven." 
       Readers who appreciate American cultural history, making 
       fun and affordable crafts, and Mason jars themselves will 
       love this new book and its tall, narrow shape that's based
       on the proportions of the classic Mason jar"--|cProvided
