2017 WordPress Weekly Photo Challenge
~Repurpose~
“Show us something that you’ve recycled or repurposed,
or an object for which you’ve discovered a clever new use!
Repurpose is kind of a hard challenge for me since most of my recycled/reused projects are already posted on my blog. I gave it some thought and decided on a project that I don’t remember ever posting about: drinking straw dispenser. I made this one years ago. It’s quite handy.
The dispenser is made with a fairly tall jar (mine used to be a Planters nut container years ago)
And you need one pour spout from a carton of juice or something.
Wash the spout box especially the spout part thoroughly. Then put the jar’s lid over the spout and draw a circle around it and cut it out.
That’s the gist of it. It’s relatively simple.
I went on Pinterest and saw a few pins about pour spout mason jars. It’s pretty much the same method.
Wishing you all fun with the WP photo challenge!

Love it! I will have to find something I have repurposed. Oh, I actually have a straw holder that I use as a marker holder 😉 I will have to get a picture.
