Now is the time to start thinking about transitional crafting - using items that are on clearance, found or repurposed to craft seasonal or holiday items. Crafting can be a boost to your mental health, especially when it doesn’t break the bank. Done putting up your preserves and canning your veggies?

Remember - if washed and sanitize, you can reuse jars and rings, but you should not reuse the lid (flat) as you cannot be guaranteed a good seal with a recycled lid. Here is an alternative to throwing them away. Not a canner - you can purchase lids and rings in a variety of places.
