DIY Soap Dish Holder

One of my favorite projects that I have completed so far is my soap dish holder. 


I really love how it turned out and it was super easy and cheap. The only things involved in making it was a candle stick holder that I already had, a clear plate from the dollar store, and some frost spray paint from Wal Mart I got for a couple of bucks.

 
I took my small, clear plate outside and coated it in the frost spray paint. 

I did this in the grass and it ended up getting a pretty cool grass pattern on it that you cant see in the pictures. After it was almost dry, I placed it on top of the candle stick holder. As it dried, it adhered the plate to the candlestick. Next I tied a burlap bow and the soap dish holder was complete!




Now to decorate the plate with objects. I found a couple of different tutorials on how to make your own soap dispenser so I thought I would give it a shot. I had a mason jar already and I just bought a soap dish holder from the dollar store. 

I took the pump out of the soap dish holder and punched a hole in the top of the lid of the mason jar and stuck the pump through it. It was so snug that I did not need to hot glue it into place.



 Now, I wanted to color my mason jar to give it a bit of pizazz. I saw a few tutorials on Pinterest. Unfortunately, it didn't work. So I just washed out the jar and left it clear. Maybe I will try it again later.

Anyways, here is the end result that is now sitting in my kitchen. It's a great addition.
