ORGANIZERS

1. Kitchen

Make these when you need a place to store this and that. Paint the outside of your Mason jars (we recommend 32-oz. wide-mouth sizes) with cream chalk paint and let them dry. For a distressed look, use fine-grit sandpaper to gently scrape away paint. Seal the deal with spray sealant (make sure you’re in a well-ventilated area). Add metallic flair by spray-painting the rings with oil-rubbed bronze spray paint, and let them dry. Screw the rings on and fill up the jars with all your utensils that have been looking for a home.

2. Craft Room

This is the perfect project for crafters who want to cut out clutter. Create organizers using 16-oz. regular-mouth Mason jars. Paint the rings with oil-rubbed bronze spray paint and let them dry. Screw the rings on the jars without lids. Place a

Mason jar hanger with twine around each jar. Lay out a wooden board and drill holes in it for pegs. Screw the pegs into place, then hammer sawtooth hangers onto the back side of the wooden board. Hang it up, fill it with your most-used supplies and you’re bound to be a happier crafter.

3. Bath

These caddies can hold a crop of your most-used toiletries. Paint the outside of your Mason jars—any sizes will do— with chalk paint and let them dry. For a distressed look, use fine-grit sandpaper to gently scrape away the paint. If sealing, lightly spray sealant all over (be sure to do it in a well-ventilated area). Spray-paint rings with oil-rubbed bronze spray paint and let them dry. If you want to create a soap pump, top it off with a pump designed for Mason jars. For your other jars, simply fill them with all of your essentials.
