Jorge, you and Miz Anne could make a bundle with that! She could paint
and speckle the lids (darker blue-black, though) and you could install
the pump through the lid! "Christmas is a'coming' . . . " It'd cost
you maybe $3.

Looks like they would be a good seller at the Saturday Farmer's Market.
Probably could find some solid lids on line and do a batch of them. I
still have some Kerr and Ball pints around here. I will bring it up with
the Chief Artist here. Thanks.

Found a crafter's web site with the black jar lids and the pumps, lids
are about 49 cents each on sale and the pumps about a buck and a half,
plus shipping of course. The jars in the posted website are older half
pints. I can buy Golden Harvest pints cheaper than those and I don't
have too many of the short squat half pints around anymore. Looks to be
a doable project though. Will discuss with the Chief Artist when she
gets home today.

It would need to be sold with a warning sticker that it is slippery when wet,
and if it falls on the ground it may break. Personally, I consider a combination
of wet hands, soap, a glass jar and a tile floor to be a recipe for disaster.

On the other hand, you can market them as being more "authentic" than the ones
that look like old coffee pots. :-)

Ooh, a matched set for soap and hand lotion! $25 for the set!
The problem I can see for buyers is that the jars are breakable.

I use jars for storing brown and XX sugar and cornstarch and
dried peas and beans and kosher salt, like a small cannister set.

I was thinking the same thing, Geoff. No way would I want to have a glass
soap dispenser. I'd drop it for sure.

But...those pumps, wouldn't they work for other things besides soap? You
know, like ketchup or mustard? You could make them into condiment jars.

We have plastic pumps on glass jars of antibacterial soap in each
bathroom and one with a plastic jar on the kitchen sink. You don't have
to pick them up to pump some soap into your hand. At least we don't.

I guess you could put whatever you want into the jar but some food items
are acidic and the lids are metal.

Hmm, guess you're right there. I'm a klutz, though. I can't count how many
times I've knocked the bathroom soap dispenser into the basin.

Ask the neighbors to save one-piece jar lids for you from their Classico
(and other) products. Paint them. We're talkin' recyclin' here, Jorge,
not new. You gotta do this as cheap as you can if you're going to
maximize your profits. I'll go along with the usual 50-50 split.

So are lots and lots and lots of the lotion and soap containers you buy
at Bed, Bath, & Beyond and everywhere else. Nope, I wouldn't let that

These things are generally used while they're on a counter top--no
lifting required. Jorge, glue a rubber jar ring to the bottom to reduce
the skid factor.

None of the stuff I bought for my bathroom carries such a warning,
Geoff. OTOH, a sticker that says, "Caution. Glass. Will break when
dropped onto a hard surface," fits right in line with a lot of mentality
we see these days.

Smacks of corporate shysters, always want to try and cover every base in
case of a lawsuit. Doesn't matter, this whole country is lawsuit crazy.
In my career as a safety professional I've been sued over 300 times,
none have ever stuck. The shysters have lists of all the people who ever
worked for a chemical company and they sue them all hoping to get
something. Fie on the lawyers, fie I say.

I don't think any of my neighbors eat any sauces like that. Most of them
seem to be burning meat and vegetables most of the time. Remember, this
ain't haute cuisine country, this is SW Loosyanna, home of pig butt,
snouts, tails, and lips.

In that case they could decorate the tops with pearls and charge
even more! It's all about branding.

JC? A holy water dispenser wherein one don't havta share fingertips with
other (possibly infectious, even pigsnout flu) persons? Or get a baptizin'
without getting ALL wet?
And our friends in the other faiths could wash their feets tidily.
All water is holy to us out here in the desert.

I knew there was reason I liked you. I once studied hardrock geology
until I figured out the only places I could work were Australia and
South Africa. Still have my old rock pick around here somewhere and
still have all my gemology instruments in a closet.

My old geology professor taught how to lick rocks to see what kind they
were our first semester. Then she taught us about volcanoes, said there
were only mountains getting their rocks off.
