RECYCLE

Do you save glass jars?

I do, I use them for all kinds of things.

My latest project was to make storage contaners for our basement bathroom,

we had guest stay with us this week and I wanted everything out in the open were they could find it.

I used a crazy assortment of jars

a pickle jar

a cherry jar

a pesto jar

and

an old canning jar that a sweet friend had given me.

I sanded the lids to scuff them up

Painted them a grey blue

and

sealed them with MOD PODGE

and now I have pretty containers

without spending any money.

While we are down here

why don't I show you around

This is my favorite colletion

I love beauty products old and new

and the sweet little cabinet they sit in makes me smile.

I have an old bed pan hanging on the wall with magazines

(sorry Gwen) 

This old Borax dispenser hangs over the sink and still works

I bought it a few years ago in CA while on vacation

A chubby baby in a wash tub what could be cuter

and then there is the sign that shows just how weird my sense of humor is

and finally the sign that started it all

this sweet girl is on the door to tell you good bye as you leave

oh, wait I forgot one of my favorite things

the handles on the cabinet

I just love how vintage they are.

Hope you enjyed the tour and have

been inspired to recycle a glass jar in a new way.
