Tip Thursday - Clear Jars


Tip Thursday! I bought some pretty embossing powders while at Ipswich Papercraft Show. I can hear you saying "But you have embossing powders in your shop! Why did you buy elsewhere?!?"

1) I don't have access to these colors in my shop.
2) I saw them on sale and I helped out a fellow exhibitor with a sale.
3) They were $8.50 each or 2/$15.
4) I didn't have to pay for shipping!

Normally, when I use embossing powders, it's a bit of a struggle to get the lids off or to pour back into such a small container. I decided to decant my new embossing powders into our Clear Jars instead. They are wider and shallower, and I find them easier to hold without potentially busting the lids. Et voila, I can now see my powders better and I have more control over pouring them.

These are standard size jars of Ranger embossing powder.

Clear Jars and embossing powder jars.

These colors are so pretty!

The holographic powder decanted into it's new jar.

All four decanted.

These look so appetizing and easier to craft with now.

A lot of people use the jars for storing loose gems, sequins, shaker bits, ribbons, brads, antistatic pouches, wooden buttons, acrylic shapes, snacks, and even packets of diamond dots!

I put all of my powders, my heat tool, and my antistatic pouch into a basket in my trolley. I have a lid for my trolley too.

Et voila! Easy to see, easy to grab, easy to put away when finished.

What bits and bobs in your crafting stash would you put into these jars?
