Half empty or half full?

Repurposed empty jars

One jar used to hold mustard; it's a stocky, thick bottle with handles, reminiscent of a miniature barrel. I used it as a little vase for tiny bouquets. A pair of jars from cockail sauce were just right as juice glasses for toddler hands, or vases that fit well on the narrow window sill above the kitchen sink. But, guess what? We already have tiny vases; we already have juice glasses. . . and they're better-looking, too! Let's use and enjoy the good stuff, and let the other stuff go. Off go these jars to the recycling bin. Positive move!
