Mason Jar Soap Dispenser

Recently I added a new folder to my "Favorites"
I called it "To Make"
I'm adding crafts to it like crazy - it's going to be my favorite favorite folder :)

This darling soap dispenser is the reason I created my new folder - and it was the first thing I made from it, too. I just love it so much!

How cute is that?

It's been made by several people, but I went ahead and used Heather's instructions from HeatherBullard.com. They were well written and easy to follow - a huge bonus!

Start with a soap dispenser you like, a mason jar, a drill with whole saw attachment and some epoxy.

Cut the top off your soap dispenser, leaving the threading intact. Measure and drill a whole into your mason jar lid for your bottle top to fit through. Then epoxy them together.



I went with a purple soap. It's blackberry-vanilla scented. Or something.

Anyway, it's lovely! I absolutely adore the way it looks - so cute and fun!

  7. My husband and I made a soap dispenser this week, and we loved it so much that we made a hand lotion dispenser, too! It's so cute to see my husband stand back and look at our home made dispensers with a huge smile on his face! :)
    Have a great weekend!

  24. The hands-free option is nice because it promotes extra cleanliness, which allows people to avoid having to touch the dispenser to get the soap out. A bottle dispenser is by far the most common type that is used within the home, because it is inexpensive and easy to refill. It is sometimes possible to buy these products from a commercial cleaning service for those that are interested in high-grade cleaning supplies.
