upcycled aldi

I had a much-needed day off on Friday.  I didn't think about school, didn't leave my house, didn't clean (much).

I did add pretty paper bits to the lids of some pasta sauce jars from Aldi that I had saved.  Upcycled...and then instagrammed (don't you just love using new verbs that get flagged by spell checkers?).

I followed the directions from pinterest (just looked at the picture).  They were a little plain so I added a couple of hearts and some faux stitching on the yellow flower paper.  

...and added some of my vintage spools of thread (vintage buttons would be good too).  Just about anything would look prettier in these jars.  I plan to make a few holiday ones now...looks like we'll be eating a lot of stuff that needs pasta sauce.

Love! those days that involve not leaving the house and not cleaning. Possibly while wearing pajamas...

Your jars would be such a pretty way to 'wrap' homemade candy and treats as gifts. Always inspiring here. :-)
