CREATE stylish & functional organization
Use chalkboard paint to create a write-upon label on Mason jars to use as storage!

Mason jars are available in various sizes & can be purchased by the case, making them very affordable.
Find them in your grocery store or here. |

Tape off the area you'd like to paint. I wanted to use my blue paint tape as it is so easy to peel off but masking tape worked just as well.

I used a small foam roller available here & chalkboard paint available here. |

You can see how they look very transparent after the first coat. I just let them dry in the sunshine for a few minutes before applying another coat. I think I did a total of 3 or 4 coats.
FYI - The instructions tell you to let them sit for 3 days before conditioning & writing on them. Just keep this in mind if you were planning on giving them as a gift or needed them right away. Then it's a total of 7 days from when you painted them before you can wipe them with a wet cloth.

Pretty!
I am using them in my cupboards for cereal, crackers, snacks, beans, dog treats, etc.
They really clean up the space & I love that I can easily change them as I change the contents inside the containers. |
