Hit 100 repurposed jars last week and it hit me how much I've changed

I was stacking up my latest batch of cleaned spaghetti sauce jars in the basement and realized I had 100 of them on the shelf. Started way back in 2018 when I lived in Cleveland and just wanted to store beans and rice. Now I use them for everything from homemade gifts to organizing screws and it feels like a little win every time. Anyone else surprised by a random milestone from their upcycling habit?

Put a label on them with masking tape and a sharpie. Saves me from playing the guessing game every time I open the cabinet.

Hit 100 repurposed jars" - thats wild but I get it because I just heard someone say they use old pickle jars for their dried herbs and now I notice every single jar I own too lol.

Wait, are you saying I should be proud of my "jar graveyard" taking over my cabinet or worried that I've become my grandmother? Because I swear half my pantry is just spaghetti sauce jars with random stuff in them now.
