supah simple

I love boxes and containers of any sort really, and maps, I loooove maps. You see where I'm headed?? Maybe not, but here is where I started-

just my style

I love "upcycling" things! This project was easy peasy and I think it is super duper cute! I have tons of baby food jars hanging around (if it is glass you must save it, right?), I've been trolling the DIY blogs for something to do with them. I combined a few different ideas and here is the outcome!



The washers are hand stamped by me and tied with jute. A yummy smelly votive is nestled inside. I <3 this!
