7. Apothecary Jars from Glassware

Elevate your bathroom storage by creating “Apothecary Jars.” These are made by gluing glass candlesticks to the bottom of glass jars. They look like expensive vintage pieces and are perfect for holding cotton balls, swabs, or colorful soaps.

  • Materials Needed:
    • Glass jar with a lid
    • Glass candlestick holder
    • Strong clear glue (E6000)
    • Decorative knob (optional)
  • Steps:
    • Clean both glass pieces thoroughly.
    • Apply glue to the top rim of the candlestick holder.
    • Press the bottom of the glass jar onto the candlestick, centering it carefully.
    • If the lid is plain, glue a decorative drawer knob to the top for extra flair.
    • Let it dry for a full day before using.

Pro Tip: Spray paint the lid and the candlestick the same color (like matte black) for a modern, unified look.
