Repurposed: The Jar Lid

So, as you might have caught from my previous post about Zum Soaps, I was in the market for a soap dish. But the more I thought about, the more I realized that I must own something that could work as a soap dish.

Enter the jar lid from a used candle.


If you're like me, you buy a lot of candles; some of which are jar candles. Personally, I've reused the jars for all sorts of things; to hold coins and knick-knacks, as a candy dish, etc. But, I still always have some around. So, it dawned on me, if you get the big ones, those lids are almost the exact size of a large bar of soap.
I decided to try it for my new Zum bars. Perfect fit. And if they happen to be the frosted glass, like mine was; it works even better since it's not as slippery. And they'll be super easy to clean soap residue off of.

I took a few more pictures for proof of my repurposing.

What else have you used old jars or jar lids for? Share your repurposing ideas.
