Apothecary Spice Jars

I don't know if I should classify this under DIY or so easy a cave man could do it...? I am addicted to Apothecary jars or all shapes and sizes - but I am especially drawn to the "candy dish" sized. Every time I go to Goodwill I come home with at least one. After most of them sat around for weeks collecting dust I finally decided that I needed to do something with them. SO - I turned them in to spice jars!





I doesn't get much easier than this!

    Gasp! How adorable! I wish wish wish I had kept the apothecary jars from my wedding, which I used for a candy buffet, but I had nowhere to put them after the reception so I told the venue they could keep and use them if they wanted. FAIL.

    But I got them from Marshalls for dirt cheap so I'm sure I could do it again! :-)

    Thanks for sharing this @ MYM! I love this idea!

    I have an addiction to apothecaries too! I've never seen the small ones though...I'll have to be on the lookout. I really love this idea for how to use them. I found you "featured" over at somewhatsimple! Congrats on the feature!
