Does it bother you to throw away empty relish jars, pickle jars, and condiment jars?  It bothers me. They are perfectly good glass jars with screw on tops.

Jillee of One Good Thing has an easy way to repurpose these glass jars into attractive storage containers for candy, cotton balls, buttons, and other small items.  I also think if you used these jars for colorful candy, they would make a great gift for a friend or loved one.

I think this is a great idea for repurposing an empty popcorn tin into a dog food or cat food canister.

Popcorn tins are a nice and big.  They usually have tight-fitting tops which are perfect for dry food storage.  Jordan of The 2 Seasons walks through the painting process.  She used a  Silhouette for the lettering and design but I think you could easily use stencils for the lettering.  Nice project!
