Halloween Apothecary Jars

Oh how we all love apothecary jars! Including me! They are so freakin' fabulous and so fun to fill up with random objects.  The number one reason why I like them is because they are good for all seasons and holidays.  I first saw DIY apothecary jars over at Shanty 2 Chic; these ladies are fabulous!  I became inspired by Ashley's tutorial and made my own version. 

 Tip: I wasn't able to find candle sticks in varying heights and besides, have you seen the price on the candle sticks?! They are like $3! (I know, I am too cheap . . . but I need all the money for more projects! LOL)  I found a bag of (6) 1 7/8" candle sticks for $2.99!! I was able to glue them together and make varying heights.

They look great! I love the varying heights and how you put the letters in the jars instead of on the outside. :)

So cute! I love the jars on Shanty 2 Chic also, and you are so right about the cost adding up! I ended up only making two, but I think that I need another one, because it doesn't look quite right..lol :)

I saw a different version of this that I loved...but now I am in love with this one. Maybe next year I will get my rear in gear and actually decorate my home.

This year all that was put out was the door hanger that says Happy Halloween...
