How to reuse mason jars

Hi guys, here I am again! I found some good and quite easy ideas of how to recycle and reuse mason jars usually placed in the trash.

DIY: Lovely Flower Jars!

1. Get a mason jar, a satin ribbon and some white lace ribbon.




2. Two types of flowers: a bigger one and a tiny one.




3. Now just cut a piece of lace that fits around the jar and glue the ends with hot glue. Let it dry. Then cut a piece of satin ribbon and tie a lace. Put some water inside the jar and place the flowers. 

Now look how cute it looks:

Another option is to tint the jars first:

Tile Decal (or Tile Stickers)

Looking for an easy alternative to make a change on your home without dealing with all that mess that a renovation can cause? Well, here is a good tip that worked well for me: tile decal.

Some examples of what is possible to do with it. Hope it serves as inspiration for you.

Kitchen:






Bathroom:




 Living Room:




Outdoor:



I bought mine on Gecko, a webstore here in Brazil. But for those who don't live in Brazil, I found some good ones here as well.

Ok, now the DO-IT-YOURSELF!
Tile stickers are really easy to glue:
  1. Clean the surface properly;
  2. If it's a tile surface, then wipe it with a damp cloth to avoid bubbles;
  3. Gradually glue the adhesive using a dry cloth to help.

Unfortunately I found no photo of my kitchen before. But this is my kitchen now:
