1. Cupcake Liner Storage

 

Why hide those adorable cupcake liners,  store them in a Mason Jar for all to see.  Throw them into your glass front cabinets for a fun pop of color!   Or sit them in a baking basket on your counter.  They are sure to put a smile on your face!

2. Cute Match Box

 

Who wants to see an ugly match box on your mantel next to a beautiful fire in the hearth.  Declutter your junk drawer and store your matches all in one place. All it takes is a mason jar and some sandpaper.  

A little match bottle will also make an adorable gift.  Consider using one of the smaller jars like these, and follow the instructions in the video.  Then pair your cute matches with s’more fixings for a fun gift!

3. Recycled Shaker

 

Having guests over?  Want to make your special spaghetti dinner cuter?  Take the top of your Parmesan cheese canister and add the Parmesan to a mason jar that put the green lid on your jar.  Voila!  A cuter Parmesan shaker!!!

Additionally when your Parmesan is all gone, save the lid and use it for storing powdered sugar, cinnamon sugar or even crafting supplies like glitter.

4. Recycle Pour Spout

Another pouring option.  Cut off the top of that old salt container and fill you mason jar with sugar, baking soda or baking powder and use the dispenser to help pour yourself a teaspoon!!  Again this can work for craft supplies.  

Or use it for salt, and shake it on with an adorable Mason jar dispenser. It’s a must-have for summer picnics, barbecues, and dining al-fresco.
