Hi, I'm Sarah from The Winthrop Chronicles and I'm so excited to be with you today here at Tutus & Tea Parties. Before I started blogging, I worked as a TV news reporter for NBC and then took early retirement ;) to stay at home with my kids. I have three little ones under the age of 5 and a wonderful husband. I stay pretty busy with potty training and picnics, but I try to find time to craft as much as possible. Because my crafting time is usually squeezed in to nap times, I like to try and think of quick projects. Here is a little tutorial for you guys I hope you enjoy!

first. I made the hole in the top by using this scary looking tool to punch through {seriously doesn't it look so dangerous!} You could also use a nail and hammer.

second. Then with pliers I pulled back the center until the hole was big enough for the soap dispenser.

{Until it looks like this, or however big you need it}

third. Then I hot glued the soap dispenser to the lid.

fourth. I used some burlap, twine and washi tape to decorate the mason jar.

fifth. Pour some liquid soap in the mason jar and put on the lid. 

This took maybe 20 minutes to make, it was really quick. I will definitely be making more, I have a few more bathrooms that still have old boring soap dispensers. They would be an easy and quick gift too!
