Spring Decor From an Up Cycled Wine Box & regular sauce jars…
STOP! You might not want to throw that away- FrugElegant Decor can be created from items we usually toss into the recycle bin! We are so happy to be participating in the blog series “Craft Lightning: Recycled Crafts”. Projects using recycled items & also take 15 minutes or less to create.
Our Spring Vase Centerpiece – 4 pasta sauce jars (can be any brand!), and 1 wood wine bottle box (the kind that would hold one single wine bottle). We purchased: 2 drawer handles & small size screws at our local hardware store. We already owned the small chalkboard. Another option would be to paint chalkboard paint directly onto the wooden box.
Simple instructions:
- We attached handles to a wine box & since the screws were silver we used a black sharpie marker to match the handles.
- Tied some yellow ribbon around the jar tops. Another option that would take a few extra minutes would be to glue some jute around the top rim to give a rustic elegance to the vases.
- Used a small tack to hang a chalkboard sign on the front
There are so many fabulous options for this project. Have fun creating your one of a kind FrugElegant Decor!
