Canning Jar Craft Storage

Lately my husband and I have been working on organizing and furnishing

my craft room.

Hopefully within the next few weeks,

I will be able to show how I've set up the space.

It is coming along very nicely.

The idea of having a permanent dedicated area just for me and my hobby?

Wow - such decadence!

It is so exciting to imagine that I won't have to surrender our

dining table every time that I take on a new sewing project!

For now, I can show you one tiny project that I completed yesterday:

A canning jar transformation!

I've had this jar FOREVER, and love how thick the lid is.

Ready for a change from the old rusted metal top,

I decided to paint it a nice shiny pink.

(If I was a good craft blogger I would have taken a before picture,

but this was a spur-of-the-moment project)

Before painting, I also added a rose cabinet knob to the top.

(It was simple to screw through the lid; I pre-made a hole by pounding a nail into the top.)

Have you ever seen a cuter way to store twine?

I can't wait to show you the rest of my new crafty space!
