New Life for the Candle Jar Lid

I often felt guilty throwing away the lid to a candle jar.

As I was just about to chuck one in the trash I stopped to consider what it could become.  It can be reused in so many ways I probably won't throw one away again! The ideas below use one candle jar lid and a piece of tulle. The possibilities to dressing it up are endless! This is just what I had at the moment.

A piece of tulle tied around the bottom.

Makes a nice coaster for refreshing drinks.


Becomes a lovely stand for the candle itself or any candle for that matter!

When the lid is turned over it looks like a small bowl.





Great for holding rings while washing dishes.


What a cute little candy dish!!


No cost desk organizer.


Add a little water and a few flowers and you have pretty table decor.

Perfect sized dish for dipping sauce. (this note has not been approved by the FDA)


            And the list could go on and on and ooooooooonnnn!!          


             











Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!
