Out with the old...

In the spirit of re-organizing the kitchen I decided to wash my amber glass jars in the dishwasher to give them a little pick me up. 

Well, when I opened the dishwasher the amber coating on the large jar had washed off somewhat. 

Now, I can't have the jars looking so tacky. 

So, with a few Brillo pads, warm soapy water and a little elbow grease,

 I've got myself new jars!

Amber glass jars before



I washed the jars in the dishwasher first to sanitize and to get a good clean.  I then used a Scotch bright Brillo pad with warm soapy water to scrub the jar.  You have to use a little elbow grease to get the coating off.

I refilled the jars with corn meal, sugar, and flour and they are complete!
Now, that's what I call
Recycle, Renew, Reuse, and Re-purpose!
