\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I really enjoy creating innovative ways to re-purpose typical, every day household items, particularly when I find the need to have the items handy for multiple projects.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Creating easy access and storage for such items is often a challenge.\u00a0 Even trickier is balancing the need to reuse, recycle and re-purpose with creating organized structure that doesn\u2019t contribute to the clutter.\u00a0 One of the notable points to storing such \u201cfiddly\u201d items lies in finding the appropriate container for the item in question.\u00a0 The rule of thumb is to choose a container that mimics the form of the item and allows ease and convenience of use.<\/p>\n

In this instance I’ve take a household “Mason” canning jar because it fulfills both purposes.\u00a0 I transformed it with very little effort and some creativity into a convenient place to store household string.<\/p>\n

Materials:<\/strong><\/em><\/span>
\nMason canning jar
\nString [to fit in the Mason jar]
\nLabels
\nComputer to design and print labels<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>I purchased the Mason jars for beverages as the lids already have the holes for straws.\u00a0 I placed the household string inside and fed the string through the hole in the lid.\u00a0 I designed labels to read “Knick of Twine”<\/span><\/em> and “Highly Strung”<\/span><\/em> and affixed them to the Mason jars.\u00a0 I\u2019ll use one for the garden, one for the laundry room, my office and another for the kitchen.\u00a0 And there you have it! This is a super way to fashion a “one of a kind” container for household twine and be certain that when you reach for it, it is ready for the task at hand.<\/p>\n
