This project will only take you the time it takes to track down a great mason jar and a glass insulator.
What is a glass insulator you might ask. Glass or ceramic insulators were made to attach to the top of telegraph and electricity poles to keep the wires from touching the wood poles (because that would result in a fire). Blue, green, and clear seem to be the more common colors (at least where I shop).
After finding this great square mason jar (I just love that it’s square!) I found an insulator that matched and fit in the mouth of the mason jar, it did have a small chip on it but I thought it gave it a little more character. The mason jar stores cotton balls and the insulator stores q-tips (The Hubs loves his q-tips).
Like I said this is a super quick way to add some vintage charm and some storage to your bathroom. Just writing this post makes me want to go antiquing and find some fun new stuff. Maybe I can squeeze some in…maybe not…Its the first game of the season for The Hubs and I’s Alma Mater, so we have a huge weekend of college football planned. What are y’all up to?
This is such a good idea!! I have so many mason jars that I can def use like this! Love it!
