Parmesan Cheese Lid fits a Ball jar

So I don’t know if you are like me……  I pin things from Pinterest that look like good ideas and save them

on my board without knowing if they really work. I decided to test this cheese lid idea out and it proved to be true!!

It fits on my Ball canning jar!!!

This gets the 2 thumbs up award 🙂  Thank youwww.makeyourownzone.com for coming up with the brilliant idea!!

    Wow! I just recycled a cheese lid, too. This tip led me to two other sites that are really great for frugal homemakers. I get your posts by email and I really enjoy them. Thanks for all you do!

    I’ve been reading your blog for some time now and enjoy all your frugal ideas. What a happy surprise today when I checked in to see what was new at your blog and discovered that you found my canning jar/parmesan lid post through Pinterest! Hopefully you will find some practical uses for our great discovery 🙂 God bless!

    I too have had this pinned for quite some time, I have saved the lid and checked it out, it does fit and unlike several pins I have pinned this one actually works. I have used it for my homemade powdered scrub…what ideas does everyone have to use it besides sprinkle cheese and homemade cleaning scrubs??

    Great idea — but I made Dishwasher Art when I thought I would get all the parm smell out of the lid 🙁 Now I have to eat another whole jar of parm.
