You won’t believe all the uses for these fab glass jars

By Julie Scagell

If you’re thinking about spring cleaning or just want a new fun way to showcase items around the house, glass jars are the perfect vessel to do so. Perhaps you want a new way to store spices or are thinking of canning your own jam. Or maybe you have a new home office and want to stay organized and have a place for odds and ends. Whatever the reason, we love these five glass jars from Amazon. They are gorgeous to look at and make the perfect place to store just about anything.

We love the hexagon shape of these glass jars. They are perfect for canning sauces or jams and can be given a water bath and pressure canned. They are also ideal for storing home office suppliers like paper clips or pencils and come with labels and a chalk pen. If you don’t want these beauties hiding away, use them for gifting (candy for Valentine’s Day) or as wedding favors.

If you’re looking for a smaller size for cupboards, check out these 4-oz jars, also with a fun hexagon shape. They are “leakproof, waterproof, smell-proof,” the lids are airtight. These would be great for stacking herbs, small beads or other craft material in an art room, or used as little jars for bathroom supplies like cotton balls or Q-tips.

We love these mini quilted glass jars. They are so adorable to use to gift someone candy, nuts, honey, or olive oil. The wide mouth makes it easy to get whatever you need inside and the lid is leakproof if you’ve got spill-able items inside. These would also look stunning on a place setting to leave as gifts for guests to take home at the end of a dinner party.

This mini glass jar set is the perfect way to give a gift – be it a party favor, birthday giveaway, or wedding favors. These have adorable cork lids, and can be personalized with the labels and string to attach. We can see little mints or colorful candies displayed inside and placed on an entry table at your next big event.
$18 from Amazon

If you need storage in bulk, look no further than this 24-pack of glass jars with resealable lids. These could be used in a shed to store seeds, filled with water to house a single flower bud, or even used as a container for little love notes to leave in your significant other’s room. The possibilities are endless, and these impossible-to-break jars will stand the test of time in any room.

Putting yourself first doesn’t mean you are selfish. Really.

Selfish is often seen as a bad word — but it doesn’t need to be. Indeed, in our modern world, where downtime is dwindling, it probably shouldn’t be, either.

Selfishness can actually be good for you. For example, effective communication and self-care both flow directly from taking a more selfish view of the world.

Blazers don’t have to be boring. We show you how to up your style quotient

Blazers are no longer just for stuffy offices or preppy ensembles; they are quickly becoming one of the most essential wardrobe staples. This versatile outerwear piece can be worn on almost any occasion, no matter if you’re going on a job interview or you’re running errands. A classic blazer can elevate your sweatpants (yes, really!) or seamlessly blend with a cute mini dress for a night out. But no matter where you’re going, you can take your outfits to the next level with these interesting and creative ways to wear a blazer.

Pair it with jeans
Let’s start with a casual look. Try matching your favorite blazer with a cute pair of jeans. Loose-fitting or straight leg, your blazer will look great all the same. On top, you can layer a plain white tee or a cute graphic t-shirt underneath the structured coat. Or, if you want to dress it up a little bit more, wear a basic turtleneck with your jeans for a simple business casual look. When you’re creating your outfit, make sure to pay attention to the fit of each individual piece. If you match an oversized blazer with a loose-fitting tee and slouchy jeans, your outfit may overpower your frame. Instead, try to create balance in your look by combining fitted and loose-fitting pieces.
Create a comfortable outfit
Blazers also look great with athleisure wear. A tailored jacket can elevate your casual outfit and make even your comfiest sweats look chic. Layer a cute blazer over a matching sweatsuit. Or, you can wear it with your favorite sweatshirt or t-shirt and bike shorts, leggings, or sweatpants. And don’t forget your favorite sneakers! With this extra layer, your whole ensemble will look more put-together, and enjoy a polished look while staying comfy.
