Another Recycled storage!

This is for my ribbons. Again i havent done anything to the jars yet, not sure if i will, i kinda like how the ribbons add their own touch! These are plastic Mayo jars. I plan on having a jar for each color, my collection is almost done, just need 4 more!

heres all the recylced jars

More Recycled!

These are for my smaller flowers. They are cleaned out salsa and chip dip glass jars. I havent done anything specacular yet besides spray paint the lids to match the other lids. not sure i need to add anything to the jar or not. i think in a way seeing the flowers inside is pretty enough?

My Recylcing crafts!

I have never been a waster, guess its part of being poor! pinching pennies is my lifestyle! So i may not be as green as some would like but i am creative with my Green!

I have been saving containers, both plastic and glass to store my beautiful scrapbooking embellishment collections.

This first one is for my large flowers. I took some old christmas tins i've had for years and covered them with wallpaper that matches the wall paper i put on my cabinets in my scrapgarage!. i stamped some swirls and embossed them with copper. Then for each tins color flowers i attached that color flower with a pretty rhinestone brad. I spray painted the lids light blue which you wont see in the pics cause i hadnt done it yet. I quite like the way they came out!
