1/2/12 DIY Mason Jar Soap Dispenser

 I was inspired by these Mason Jar soap dispensers I came across on Pinterest.
These specific jars are from tickledpinkgoods on etsy. But I find this to be an easy DIY project!
You will need:
  • a Mason Jar
  • an old soap dispenser(or you could buy a pump)
  • Drill
  • small drill bit & large drill bit (or a hole saw)
  • Crop Saw
  • Hot Glue gun
  • Marker
  • Liquid Soap
  • Mark the center of the lid so you know where to drill.
    Take the smaller drill bit to first puncture the lid and make it smoother for the larger drill bit to go through.
It should look like this so far!

 After all that drilling make sure you clean out the jar from any metal shards left behind. Before...
...pouring in your soap!
Next, take your cropping saw and cut off the top of your old soap bottle so you can srew in the pump. If you leave a little hang over from the bottle when sawing off the top, you can skip the next step with the hot glue gun.
Hot glue a few layers on the outer rim of the srew on top so it doesn't fall through the jars lid.

It should look like this with a little lip.
 Place the srew on top in the whole with the lip on the bottom. Stick a little hot glue over any holes poking out for extra security.
Screw in the pump to the lid then screw on the lid to the jar.
 Your Mason Jar soap dispenser is finished!
Now go wash your hands! ;) <3
