I had a lot of free time this weekend. And instead of spending the weekend golfing, I had to find something else to do. I figured I’d be productive and do what I love…organize.
I have been saving my PB2 jars for about a year now. I have over fifty! I wanted to save them for my paint brushes but found they look much better in my baking cabinet. Right now we live in an apartment and these jars fit perfectly in the limited space. I washed them out and filled them with ingredients.
Here are a couple of the jars I filled so far. I have about 25 more to fill with ingredients and I’ll make sure to post that. I used a Sharpie paint pen. The pens work perfect on glass or plastic and they dry so quick! Why can’t nail polish work that fast?
A lot of you ask about the ingredients I keep in my baking cabinet so here is a list. And as you can see, I have a lot more to jar up!
- Dark Chocolate Chips
- Semi Sweet Chocolate Chips
- Dairy, Nut, Soy Free Chocolate Chips
- Sunspire Vegan Chocolate Chips
- White Chocolate Chips
