There’s something timeless about the 4th of July. It’s a day for gathering with loved ones, eating good food, and enjoying the simple pleasures of summer. At Piper Classics, we believe farmhouse style fits this holiday beautifully—laid-back, nostalgic, and full of heart.
Maybe it takes you back to childhood summers – running barefoot through the grass, sticky fingers from watermelon slices, the hum of cicadas in the trees. You remember those vintage lawn chairs lined up under the shade, friends and neighbors laughing over lemonade, the smell of burgers on the grill, and that rising excitement as dusk settled and everyone waited for the first firework to light up the sky. It’s a celebration of freedom, yes – but also of connection, tradition, and the small, beautiful rituals that make this season feel so special.

Both a timeless accessory and a Piper Classics favorite, the traditional glass Mason Jar is not only affordable and functional — it just so happens to also be the perfect accent to tie together almost any style of rustic vintage farmhouse decor.
The race to create this new method of food storage actually began in 1795, with a request by none other than Napoleon Bonaparte. But it wasn’t until 1858, when the Philadelphia tinsmith John Landis Mason invented and patented his namesake glass jar, that canning jars as we know and recognize them today entered the commercial landscape.
