DIY Chalkboard Mason Jar Lids

For the longest time I’d had little baggies of dry goods stashed in my cupboards. It looked terrible. Rice, beans, flour—you name it. I could never find anything and it was hard to distinguish one white powder from the next. I finally got my act together and moved everything to mason jars, and it’s been so nice to open up a cupboard to find a row of ingredients all lined up, rather than the usual mess of bags.
