Make Dollar Tree's Cookie Jars Look Expensive With This Affordable DIY
By TRINITY ARCHIE
At Dollar Tree, you’ll find many storage jars, but you may think they’re a little plain. Instead of passing up a $1.25 bargain, you can upgrade them with a simple DIY.
There are many cookie jar options, such as the Caterers Corner Clear Plastic Candy Jars or the Classic Counter Top Glass Cookie Jars that can stand upright or face forward.
Once you’ve chosen the jars that best suit your purposes, simply remove the lids and spray-paint them gold. Do this outside so as to prevent fumes filling your home.
Purchase gold spray paint from a home improvement store or on Amazon for only $6.83. Try Rust-Oleum fluorescent spray paint in any fun, bright color for a child’s room.
You can further customize your jars by tying ribbon around the lids or adding a bit of lace for a boho-chic look. Dollar Tree sells ribbons for only $1.25 per roll.
Use your jars anywhere in the home, including the kitchen, bathroom, or bedroom. Finally, add labels to your jars with tape and a marker, or affix a Dollar Tree chalkboard sticker.
