A journal of my crazy desire to complete one craft or creative project every day for one year.

Day 15: Decorative Cookie Jar

I love glass jars. I love organizing. I love cookies! A match made in heaven, don't you think?

I have a bunch of jars in the kitchen labeled for sugar, flour, tea, and coffee (all of which get used on a frequent basis!). I also have a large, lonely cookie jar. It doesn't say cookies. It doesn't say treats. It's a very lonely little jar... there should be a song - check the Country/Western station.

Well, the jar has now had life breathed into it! Or, at least, a little decoration. I've mentioned before how much I love the decor elements that my company sells - especially the decals (see the project from day 1 - Butterflies on the big blue wall). So, to make my cookie jar more special, I took a chocolate brown decal (appropriate colour, wouldn't you agree?) and applied it to the jar - it sticks just as well as on the wall, and can be wiped with a damp cloth if it gets mucky. It's a cute picture of a song bird - sweet and pretty, just like chocolate chip cookies!

Talk about an easy project!
Pictures are up on flickr - have a look!
