Jars For Life
We love reusing our glass jars, and find that those that simply chuck them in the trash are sorely missing out on an excellent source of containers. The downside of this process is that you have to scrub like crazy once you have removed the labels from your jars.

Jars For Life
To avoid having to murder the sticky film that labels leave behind, fill a container with hot water and dishwashing liquid, and leave the jars in to simmer for a few hours. Next, take the soaked jar out and seal it with plastic wrap for five minutes. Now, all that you need to do is take the wrap off and the label will slip off completely cleanly.
