My mom taught me how to re-purpose before it was fashionable. Below are tips and tricks to help you re-purpose and save money. By the way, I still use these tips and tricks to this day…
1. Peanut butter and jam jars– are great for storing legumes and pasta. To get rid of the label- fill a pot with water, put jar in the middle. Heat the water but be careful it doesn’t get too hot otherwise the jar may crack. Watch as the water heats up, you will notice the paper and glue begin to melt. Take the jar out and pull the label off. Clean jar with soapy water to remove paper and glue. Viola! You have a ‘new’ jar!
