Stay organized with these decorated jars.
One of my problems is always having buttons, beads and pins scattered on my floor. I decided to decorate some little jars to easily to store these small items that I use frequently. I have been wanting to try etching cream again (I haven’t used it since a high school art project) and thought this would be a great way!
