Hit 200 jars upcycled last week - does quantity matter or is it all about creativity?
I finally crossed the 200 mark on upcycled jars after about 18 months of saving and repurposing. Some people say it's impressive because you're keeping that much glass out of landfills, but others argue that just painting a jar and calling it a pencil holder doesn't count as real upcycling. I've got a shelf full of plain mason jars holding dry beans in my pantry, plus a few fancy ones with twine and lace that I gave as gifts. My sister thinks I'm hoarding, but my neighbor says every jar saved is a win. Do you guys track your numbers or just focus on how cool the final project looks?

Last year I stopped counting jars and just started using them for freezing stock and it worked way better.

Freezing stock in jars is risky tbh, glass can shatter.
