Upcycled Dollar Tree DIY Halloween Glass Jars
Upcycled Dollar Tree DIY Halloween Glass Jars Happy Monday evening, everyone! A few days ago while at Dollar Tree unsuccessfully looking for more potholders, in the same aisle I found these small jars. I’d say they are about one- or two-cup size. They are similar to old-fashioned candy jars that can either stand up straight or tilted. I can never walk out of there empty-handed, so I bought them.
