Chalkboard Spice Jars

This cute little project is a cheap simple update to do for your kitchen!  I got the idea from and followed the directions from Raising Up Rubies.


I don't have that many spices in my house to begin with {I'm not a big cooker}, so I only made 6 spice jars.  I bought a set of twelve 4oz jelly jars from Bed, Bath, and Beyond for 10$!  Walmart and Target have them as well, but my Walmart was all out!  They must be popular.
I got chalkboard spray paint and the aqua spray paint {obviously, choose any color you want!} from Walmart for 3$ and some change.  Hobby Lobby had multicolored chalk pieces for 1$ but writing with chalk on a small space is more difficult {and unattractive!} than you would think.  I'll be searching for a chalk marker in the near future.
Just spray a couple coats of any color on the outer metal lid of the jars {mine took quite a few coats!} I only had to spray 2 coats of the chalkboard spray on the metal middle part of the lids.  I let all the pieces dry overnight and then put them back on the jars!

Y'all…I really need a better camera.  I also need to get some cute little scoops to get the spices out with!
