Make A Fancy Desk Set From Trash


Instead of recycling those old jars, try turning them into something fabulous (and useful). All your bits and bobbles will be stylishly organized and you can smile the next time you can easily find a sharp pencil.

supplies

-clean jars

-paint (we used chalk board spray paint which gives a nice matte finish and leaves a fun surface to draw on)

-letter stickers (try gold or silver)

-glue gun

-a special rock or two

how to

1.

Spray paint your jars and let them dry completely.

2.

Stick on your words of choice. Glue gun a rock to a lid. And there you have it – your custom desk set.

tip In taller jars, pour in some rice or dried beans so that the pens and pencils don’t sink to the bottom.

3.

Now, get to work.
