I was worried that the bits of spray paint would start getting into the spices and I didn't want to eat paint, so I ended up having to switch all my containers and now I have 30 mason jars that I need to repurpose. Any tips for getting the spray paint to stick?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06753703660674043226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7804070005949297751.post-70737759050153438672016-09-30T11:36:24.404-04:002016-09-30T11:36:24.404-04:00I just found this and I'm in love!

Just landed here from a link on Country Living.<br /><br />After cleaning out the junk drawer in my kitchen, I'll prime the lids on 4-ounce canning jars with Rust-Oleum metal primer before spraying with chalkboard paint. Being a creature of habit, I'll keep my "usual" seasonings in the cupboard next to the stove and dedicate the drawer to baking, canning, and seldom-used spices.<br /><br />What a wonderful way to clear up an essential kitchen cabinet cluttered with too much stuff. Thank you so much!!!

Maybe someone can help/ has advice/feedback? <br />I primed lids but the primer is already rubbing off. Not sure if the chalkboard paint will stay on since the primer comes off do easily. Anyone else experience this? Thinking of using sandpaper to create a rough surface on the lids- but I'm not sure if I want to put that much energy into this project if it will just be in vain anyways. However, I am already invested in the jars, and 3 paint colors so looking for some advice from you ladies;) Moniquehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13773952849551698434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7804070005949297751.post-54639985012969046362013-09-11T12:06:27.997-04:002013-09-11T12:06:27.997-04:00OMG....I cannot wait to fix my spices like this.

I use some Ball jars around the house for odds and ends, and that's the only thing that annoys me sometimes, having to pop the lids off.Kimberlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04831677789882014809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7804070005949297751.post-87950256982832757192013-07-30T23:26:22.449-04:002013-07-30T23:26:22.449-04:00I have looked high and low for the wrapping paper,...I have looked high and low for the wrapping paper, I love it so much!
