Wouldn't it be nice if all the condiment and seasoning bottles you bought were as aesthetic as the rest of your house? Rather than having to shuffle the bright vessels around for nice dinners and hide them behind other items, what if you could swap the standard bottles your ketchup and mustard come in for stylish Mason jars with a pump applicator? While it may seem silly to think about the aesthetic of your condiments, barbeque season means they are out on display all the time, and a tidy fridge doesn't hurt, either. If you decant these sauces and reuse the jars once they are empty, you are creating a more uniform kitchen on a budget. All you need are a couple Dollar Tree Mason jars and some pump lids to DIY adorable ketchup and mustard dispensers.

The size of the glass jars you buy can also vary to suit your needs. The Lattice Pattern Glass Jars add a fancy touch. Or, if you usually buy bulk, why not purchase several Mason jars to fill with more condiments? For the pumps, you want something like the Jarmazing Products Mason Jar Dispenser Lids. You'll also need some scissors, plus decorations if you want to jazz up your jars. One of the simplest ways to make your ketchup and mustard easy to reach is to utilize IKEA solutions to revolutionize your fridge storage, like adding a turning tray to hold your dressings and sauces. Once you've swapped over all your condiments, this will make the tray seem more tidy and organized.

If you've ever wondered what is decanting and why you should use it, look no further than this DIY. Giving your home a more tidy and stylized layout, decanting is a budget-friendly way to get more uniformity. Once you've purchased your jars, make sure to give them a good wash. Allow them to dry, then decide if you want to keep them as clear glass or paint them. Painting the jars in matte white or black, then adding labels to the side with stickers and chalk paint, will help you determine which is which. You could also add a string or rope and a tag around the pump labeling each one. Before adding the pump lids, you may need to trim the straw to ensure it fits in your jar.

While using old jars to declutter and organize your kitchen is nothing new, buying Dollar Tree Mason jars for your condiments is certainly a clever way to elevate your cooking space and add a little style to your cookouts or dinner parties. Don't forget to wash out the pump lids whenever you add more mustard or ketchup to avoid them getting clogged. Use this trick for other dry foods or liquids to really achieve a clean aesthetic in both your fridge and pantry.
