Vacation Travel Jars Repurposed & Upcycled I’m not ashamed to admit I’m a chronic bottle and jar saver. The only problem is when I run out of shelf space to store them. So, I decided to upcycle a few of my own into vacation travel jars filled with sand, shells, or money!

Glass Jars Repurposed & Upcycled People collect all kinds of things. I collect empty jars and cans … much to my husband’s amusement. Way out in the country, there is no curbside recycling program, so I have to get creative. Thus, my most recent glass jars repurposed & upcycled project!

Upcycled Dollar Tree DIY Halloween Glass Jars Happy Monday evening, everyone!

I have lots of old apothecary bottles, but sometimes I’m hesitant about altering original bottles, but I love using new jars and bottles, that might otherwise be thrown away, and altering them to make them look old.
