What you will need:
• Glass jar with metal top
• Small toy
• Hot glue gun
• Spray paint
Begin by cleaning your jar and jar top
and remove all the paper labels.
Next, use the hot glue to adhere your
small toy or object to the lid of your
jar. We chose small dinosaurs because
we have lots of these tiny guys. The
bigger the jar, the bigger the toy to
glue on top.
In a well-ventilated area, place a
piece of cardboard, a tarp, or an
open plastic bag under your lids
then spray them. Allow paint to
dry overnight and you are ready to
use your new jar.

These were seriously so easy to make. I like
the idea of storing our crayons and such,
but my kids see plenty of space for their
rock collections.
