Seaglass Holder with Recycled Products (Yoplait Oui Jars!)

Just a few jars of gifted seaglass

I'm a collector of seaglass and other items found on the beach.  This has created a backlog of items with no where to put them.  Add to that, I've since gained some "sea-sters" who love to swap seaglass with me.  So along with my collection, I now have seaglass and sand from all over the world.  I don't want these just lumped in with my East Coast seaglass, so I made my own holder for them.


To start, I gathered some scrap wood and several Yoplait Oui glass jars that I had been saving.  If you've seen these jars, then you know they are too cute to just put in the recycle bin!  After measuring the wood to cut to the length I needed, I assembled the box, added a bottle and started filling the jars!  Quick labels allow me to show where each collection is from around the US and the world.




Now I just need to make another box for the growing collection!
