Hello Ladies and Gentlemen.

So, from here to there

First and foremost, let's remove the labels from the jar, here's how :

  • Fill a very hot water to the sink or basin.
  • put in the jars/bottles in to the hot water.
  • add the (magic potion) 1/4 cup baking soda, some drops of dishwasing liquid and 1/2 cup vinegar. It may sizzles, due to the vinegar.
  • leave it for 20 minutes.

So if you have an empty jar sitting around the house, Do Recycling or Re- use it.

This jar could be.....

Of course it could be anything you like, be it a cookie jar, a sugar container etc.

Actually it looks like an item in a gift shop and kindda look like expensive, but it's actually a 30 minutes DIY craft. Haha
