Before Pinterest, many people used canning jar to can fruits, vegetables, olives, salsa, jams, jelly and other food items. Today, people use canning jars for organizing small items, vases, creative gifts and so much more.
Canning jars are great for teachers or home offices. Items that can be organized in canning jars are writing utensils, paper clips, rulers, erasers and scissors. A great idea for teachers is to write the students name on the popsicle sticks to draw names during activities. Canning jars can also be used to contain those lovely insects students bring in to show teacher. This creates a great opportunity for a science lesson.
If you are a man that likes to work with his hands, but is unfortunately unorganized in your shop, you can turn canning jars into manly jars that hold your loose screws, nuts, bolts, washer, and carpenters pencils.
