Putting one of my obsessions to use

 I LOVE Mason jars.




 The actual antique ones are by far my favorite. I've seen on a couple of sites lately people making them into soap dispensers, and considering I hated the one at my kitchen sink, I decided to try. Easiest process ever!
Inspiration from the Dream Book:

1-Start with an adorable Mason jar
2- Drill a hole in the top with a 1/2 in. drill bit (those are J's hands-NOT mine!)
Oh and do you see the old soap dispenser in the right corner, yeah I did NOT like that thing.
3- Take the top of an old soap dispenser (we used an old plastic one from Bath and Body Works) and place it in the hole.
4- Screw on the old pump and ENJOY!








So pretty. So functional. So happy.
