How to Draw a Mason Jar
Draw a mason jar in 11 easy steps, about 8 minutes. Free, with a printable worksheet.
Each picture adds one red line. Draw that line, then scroll to the next picture. Rub out any dashed helper lines at the end. First up: the jar.
Step 1: The jar
In the middle draw a tall jar with straight sides, a flat bottom, round shoulders and a flat top.
Tip A tall box with round shoulders on top.
Step 2: The neck and lid
On the flat top draw a narrow neck band, then a wider lid with a line across the middle.
Step 3: Two big eyes
On the jar, below the middle, draw 2 big egg eyes. Colour a big black dot in each.
Step 4: Smile and cheeks
Under the eyes draw a wide U smile from eye to eye, and a small flat cheek beside each end.
Step 5: The lemonade line
Across the jar, above the eyes, draw 1 shallow curve from the left side to the right side.
Step 6: The handle
Draw a fat backwards C from the jar's right side back to the jar, and a smaller one inside.
Step 7: A straw
From the top of the lid draw a straw leaning up to the left: 2 close lines with 3 stripes.
Step 8: The table
Draw the table line from the left edge to the right edge, just touching the bottom of the jar.
Step 9: Cheeks and handle
Go over your lines, then colour the cheeks pink and the handle sky blue.
Step 10: Yellow lemonade
Colour the jar yellow below the lemonade line, around the cheeks. Leave the eyes white.
Step 11: Grey lid, red straw
Colour the lid grey. Colour the top part and the third part of the straw red. Leave the rest white.
Your finished drawing
Follow the steps above and this is where you end up: a mason jar, drawn by you.
