Crafts from baby food jars / Gifts, souvenirs and DIY crafts / Homemade.net - Do it yourself interesting to you if you have small children. Surely, as parents and do-it-yourselfers, the question of what to do with "tons" of jars and jars of baby food you had.

One piece of advice - do not throw away the jars, wash and pack, let them wait! In any case, first see what you can do with them, and then decide.

I hope you won't regret looking under cat. After all, making something from jars is not only useful in terms of recycling and reuse, making something with my hands, for example, I get great pleasure in the process of creating crafts and gizmos.

Let's get started - 11 fun ways to reuse empty baby food jars:

1 Souvenir flask for sweets with a handle made from a child's toy. We glue some kinder figurine, etc. on hot glue. and paint - the souvenir is ready.

2 Mini lanterns for the garden , more precisely candlesticks made from the glass part of baby food jars. We remove the lids for other homemade products, and we tie ropes to the neck, and hang them for them. Inside the candle and you're done.

3 Mini terrariums or cones for mosses and other mini plants. Comments are superfluous, everything is visible.

4 Cups for dessert. We use jars practically for their intended purpose.

5 Mini vases for one flower. To make such jars of baby food, they dip the bottom in bright thick paint, then turn it over and put it to dry on a napkin. It turns out mini vases with figured smudges.

6 Spice organizer – food jars are small and you can’t think of a better way to store spices, besides, the lid is tight and easily removed, the wide neck will fit both a spoon and fingers. It is easy to do - we glue the jars with hot glue on the base, on the lids we make inscriptions with the names of spices and voila

7 Mini liquor containers. Of course, making such crafts from children's jars is blasphemy, but let's put it into action! Besides, who said that you can only pour vodka there. Take lemonade and a very interesting idea for a children's holiday.

8 Glass photo frames. Not a very popular idea with us, but nicely agree? We have already written about the creation of such flasks with photographers - a square photo ball on a Christmas tree, small food jars are also suitable for such crafts.

9 Case for paints, crayons and markers. We put on a round lid from a large jar, glue it on hot glue. Jars can be painted in different colors so that colored pencils do not get confused. The idea is also suitable for children, it will teach them to order.

10 Miniature cones with snowflakes. Idea taken from balls with spinning snow. Glue a toy or other miniature on the lid of the jar, fill it with liquid with small particles and the snowflask is ready.
