145789Thanks for sharing, Ezze! Yep, I know about the packrat that lives in my brain, Katy. But these would make great little items for craft sales. I have just begun to work with 'Because You Care', a small animal rescue & foster program, & they need stuff like this to sell at fundraisers. It's a win-win-win! Little cost to me, funds for them, and recycling to boot! Doesn't get better than that. Thanks so much again, Ezze, for the great ideas. I will now confess to having probably 2 dozen of these empty jars, just waiting for the right idea, lol. Packrat Supreme Marji
33451cute idea, sometimes I feel these ideas come from the little pack-rat in us. I too, am guilty of not being able to throw away things that may have another purpose. That is why my sewing room is a disaster, but I know where everything is.
85867Thanks for telling us about this tip. I just emptied 2 jars yesterday, may give this a try.;)
