Have you see the show ‘Hoarders’?

Well, if you have you know what I mean when I say that I maybe 1/2 a hoarder. I am not to the point where I have so much stuff you can not walk in our house. In fact, I tend to be a bit of a neat freak! But I am not one to throw things away.

Case in point – See the medication bottle in this photo. Wait till you see what I did with the lid.

I stacked it on top of a few other things in my junk drawer and made this cute little apothecary jar.

I bought the glass at Michaels (3.99 and I used a 40% off coupon = @ 2.39) and  I used the medication bottle lid, a clay pot tray, a wooded disk I had in my stash and a cardboard ribbon spool to make its pedestal! IMG_4459

I hot glued each piece together then I spray painted it black and embellished it with trim I have in my stash and here it is…..
