This is Duncan our nine year old Jack Russell. I felt so sorry for him when we were working on our kitchen. His dog dish must have been moved at least 10 times. He was such a good boy during all of that, I thought I would make him a little something special.
An apothecary jar of his very own to hold his “Good Boy Treats”.
I had everything so I didn’t need to purchase a thing. I’m sorry but I started this project and realized that I hadn’t taken any “before” pictures. But as you can see, I spray painted the finial and the wooden circle base black. I hot glued the finial to the wooden circle base, tied raffia around the top of the glass, made name tags that said “Duncan’s Treats” and wired them on.
Presto……an apothecary jar holding “Good Boy Treats” for our special little someone….Duncan.
It sits on our countertop in the kitchen and he knows exactly where to sit and wait for a “Good Boy Treat”.
In case you’re wondering, I have plans for the frame that’s sitting there. I’ll have to post about it later.
Blessings,
Gail
Super cute. I just posted my version of those jars too. I love the ones with lids i think I will try that today!
ReplyDeleteHa ha ha! Gail, that is just too cute!
ReplyDeletep.s....I make my own vinyl:)
ReplyDeleteHow cute, Gail! I love this!
ReplyDeleteI need to do this for our doggies. I hate having the Milk Bones on the kitchen counter. Your idea is definitely cuter!
ReplyDeleteDo they make them in 5 gal sizes? lol. I have a huge dog, so we always buy the huge sizes for Milk Bones.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea!
ReplyDeleteI've needed inspiration for a cute way to hold doggie treats. Thanks!

ReplyDeleteGail, Poor Duncan! :-(
ReplyDeleteWe met a Jack Russell in England whose name was "Pickles". You guessed it: because he always seemed to be getting into a "pickle". Loved it!
Have a happy day!

ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing. What a pretty way to store necessities! I bet Duncan knows that jar belongs to him.
ReplyDeleteLucky Duncan...his own TreatJar! Apothacary jars are great to keep things fresh since the seal so well. What I'm really impressed with is Duncan's place on the sofa for his reading and writing....smart dog.
ReplyDeleteSo cute! My doggies would love these!!
ReplyDeleteOh, this is awesome! I have some canisters almost exactly like that & what a perfect way to jazz them up a bit :D Great idea!
