How To Recycle And Craft Old Jars

Sometimes I like reusing old jars to create crafts or use them as containers to store something else. In this case, I found Ashleigh Lauren’s video on how to recycle and craft old jars. She reuses spaghetti jars for a quick and easy crafty transformation. I love the energy she brings in this video. Ashleigh is bubbly and I adore her go happy attitude. It’s refreshing to watch a video that is not just bland of how-to talks. There are so many ways you can reuse these types of jars such as a pencil holder, flower vase, and the list is endless. Be creative and save those jars to create something new.

Materials:

• Jars
• Frosted Glass Spray Paint
• Twine
• Wooden Snowflakes (optional)
• Metal Snowflakes (optional)
• Faux Snow
• Glue Gun Led Candles
• Mod Podge Tissue Paper
• Scissors
• any craft designs

Directions:

Step one:

Start off with any jar you have and take the sticker off. You’re going to want to make to get all of the glue and stickiness when you peel the labels off.

Step two:

Once you follow the tutorial by Ashleigh Lauren, you can spray down your jar to have nice matte finish, or keep it glossy. Then, you’re ready to design your jar however you like. She makes her jars with a wintertime touch, but you can always change the style to either summer or spring.

Overall, I think recycling jars is a good way to be crafty and creative. This is a beautiful upcycle that can be put to greater use.
