My new collection Earth Friendly contains some glass jars with lids on or off.
My husband is starting to give me side-eye as I wash out and remove labels from more and more large glass jars to store other items in them. (He does so as he refills a large glass jar with a variety of nuts to have a healthy snack in the office with him!!!) I have also bought a bunch for super cheap at places like Goodwill and then just ordered lids on Amazon. I store baking items like flours and sugars in them now - so much easier than using those bags that pouff flour all over your face when you grab them wrong. We use small jars to keep some nuts and dried fruits in our cupboards. I store all my rices and grains in them in my pantry now - I just cut the labels from the package and stick it in the jar so I know what is what. One of my greatest discoveries was how much longer produce lasts in the fridge when kept in a glass jar. Lettuce, berries (do not wash first), peeled carrots, and so on. And, I admit, it looks pretty! Ha ha.
It has occurred to me that Photoshop Elements users may not know easy ways to remove interior shadows on glass or acrylic items so I worked with my fab team member Melissa this morning to make sure I had some clear descriptions for you of this how-to and she also made a couple of screen grabs to show you were to find certain tools.
And with that, I'm now going to show you photos (and some more details of what is in the kit - like pollen butts on bees!)
Here's the pollen covered bee tushys I promised you!
Florals galore that would also be great in masculine layouts - I custom made a lot of stuff in this collection
I know I made very crowded previews because I REALLY FILL my kits. doh! So here's a better peek at some more of what you will find...
