While glass is not biodegradable it is recyclable and more importantly reusable. I love glass because it is easy to clean, sturdy, and free of chemicals. This week begin saving your glass jars and find other uses for them. Store leftover food and freeze directly in the jar. Just be sure to leave a little space at the top. Use jars to store nuts, grains, cereal, anything in a box. Not only can you easily see the contents, it takes up less room. Small jars make great storage for craft items and nick knacks like paper clips and thumbtacks. I would love to hear how you reuse your glass jars so please leave your comments and suggestions!
Tip: I use a vis-a-vis pen or even a sharpie to mark the contents of my jars. They will easily wash off with a little soap and water.
