I try to add to my collection a bit when I’m over there this time of year though.

I started off with one of these leftover from some pasta sauce..I added three coats of this stuff with a little paintbrush.

The paint I used is DecoArt Dazzling Metallics in Champagne Gold..I ended up with this!.Seriously, it’s so pretty it’s ridiculous.

I look at it across the kitchen and it makes my heart smile.Who woulda thought?

It’s just a recycled mason jar, but when you slap some paint on it, suddenly it’s the bell of the ball.

Cinderella in jar form.Still delicious!.

Let me know if it passes the test with your family!OK, if I’m being honest here, I’ve been trying to put together this emergency preparedness kit for the last few years.If you’re in the same boat, then it’s a little like the blind leading the blind here, but I’ve taken the first step for the both of us now.

🙂 I’ve often started, but then I’d look up a list of what should be in there and I’d just get completely overwhelmed and not really know where to start.I mean there are about a million things that you.
