Don't forget to check out part 1 Grow It! and part 2 Decorate It!
The web has an abundance of DIY projects out there for just about everyone! Today I'll share a few DIY Spice Mixes that are so easy you'll wonder why you're paying those ridiculous prices for store-bought rubs and spice mixes. I'm thinking about putting these in smaller jars to give as gifts, I'll share a few more DIY jar crafts later in the series!
Making these yourself and packaging in recycled glass jars are a great way to save more and reduce waste.
