Tag Archives: paintbrush holder

Hello there, dear readers!  Just a quick post to share a recent artistic upgrade in my world.  I love to find everyday things, inexpensive ones, that I can use in a different way.  In this case I found an old, glass flower frog and thought it might work well for my paintbrush collection.  I was right!

I used to have my paintbrushes in a white ceramic container that someone had given me.  It was certainly inexpensive and functional, and I used it for several years, but it was kind of clunky.

After

This glass “frog” is much more streamlined, and looks much better in the upper right corner of my desk.  It needed a good scrub, but cleaned up nicely, is a great upgrade in both form and function.  Price?  One dollar.  Yippee!

Do you have any storage containers or tools around your home that function in an innovative way – doing something other than what they were originally intended to do?  Please share!

Warm regards,
Melody
