Finding New Uses For Those Old Mason Jars

Tweet

Many of us want to be more frugal and are searching for ways by which to do this. Some of you may have mason jars cluttering your kitchen or storage area. Are you going to be canning this season? If not, you will probably be throwing these jars out or trying to sell them at a yard sale. But, have you thought of utilizing these jars in different ways instead of canning? Here is a list of ideas that might be usual to you: 1. Flower vase- Ribbon around the neck or stinsels glued on the outside can make this a great vase. Nice for a gift for kids to give for Mother's Day or other special events. 2. Candles and Glow jars- For summer nights in the backyard or even in the house. Kids will love them too for sleepovers to have light in their rooom. 3. Planter- Decorated or not this can make a great planter for your grandkids. They can plant a seed and watch the root grown and the bud pop out of the ground. 4. Super Hero Bank/Money jar- You can get stincels and make the jar into a Batman, Ironman, Lego, etc. money jar or bank. It's fun to save their chore money in it for icecream or whatever.
