DIY Apothecary Jars

I've been seeing these every where and just couldn't resist making my own.  They were super simple and super CHEAP!  I made these three for under $10!

I found the candle sticks at Goodwill.  They had a brass finish and I simply spray painted them black.
I found the jars at Dollar Tree and glued them to the sticks.
The tops are wooden circles with knobs glued to them.  They were also spray painted black.
I found some cute Halloween ribbon at Michaels and we're done!

I love that all I have to do is change the ribbon and they'll be ready for another holiday!
I also love that the lids just rest on the jars so the kids just simply lift them off to take a treat!

I can't wait to display them with some of my other Halloween creations!

      I bet you could buy a Dollar Tree jar with a Lid and glue a cute knob to it

    The tops are wooden craft pieces that are sold in a package of 2 or 3 at AC Moore. I glued the 2 pieces together and spray painted them. The tops just rest on top of the jar. I have young kids and its easier for them to just lift the top off than to use 2 hands and pull.
