Covered Containers

I know this is nothing new, but I thought it would be fun to share. Lately, the girls have loved collecting little containers and since we like to repurpose things when we can, I gave them cleaned out Stephen's hot cocoa jars to store stuff in. But they're rather ugly to look at, unless they have hot cocoa mix in them of course ;) So I decided to cover them up all pretty! This is a great way to use up that leftover paper as well. Gotta love that!

Here's my jar. I used a cleaned out honey roasted cashews jar. It's perfect for tossing in my scrappy trash when I'm making cards and for sharpening my pencils so I don't get shavings everywhere. You can use these jars to hold paper clips, pens, tape, or whatever little bits and bobs you may have! It's a great way to organize without breaking the bank ;) I'm back in school today but I still have some layouts I did from my crop that I haven't shown you yet so you'll all get a few more posts before I go MIA in bloggo land. I hope you enjoy and have a happy Monday!
