21 ways with recycled jars

Recycled glass jars are great for storing all sorts of things, from pantry staples to nails in the garage. They are also make cheap drinking glasses in a pinch.

And of course, collecting glass jars is essential if you make your own jams and chutneys (which make great gift ideas, by the way).

But there are many other uses for recycled glass jars as the tutorials below demonstrate.

If you’re like me and have trouble throwing out glass jars, here’s a few creative ideas for reusing them.

  1. love the jar herb garden :)

  2. Thank you so much for this round up!
    I have had to recycle most of my jars as they build up quickly and there is only so much room in the cupboard!

    Another idea is to use them as a piggy bank by cutting a hole in the top. We have a couple hidden on op of our fridge for saving small change in – it soon adds up!

    I liked the jar herb garden idea and the hand wash dispenser best, such clever ideas :)

  3. I have lots of jars too. I love the pin cushion jar – just have to work out how to do it with a regular lidded jar.

  4. I have re-used several peanut butter jars and baby food jars by filling them with coconut oil and placing them around the house. Coconut oil is an amazing money saver. 1 large jar can last us all year, but I want to always keep the large jar clean so I scoop from it into the smaller jars and then use them for a variety of purposes. I mix it half and half with butter (it’s cheaper and healthier than butter). I use it instead of conditioner for our hair. I mix it half and half with all natural lotion (stretches our lotion). It is all I need for makeup remover, face moisturizer, and lubricant in the bedroom too!
