Online or in Thrift Stores
If you are thinking, hey great I would love to make this mason jar organizer, but where do I find them? I have found many in garage sales, but you do have to make sure they are still in good shape. You don't have to have the lids unless you want them, but make sure there are no nicks or breaks in the glass.
You can also find them online at Amazon (below)

If you prefer to buy them new, you get quite a few here for your DIY mason jar organizers or for anything else you might need them for. If you do canning maybe treat yourself to some new supplies and recycle the older ones for your organizer.
You could also use any kind of wood for the background, it could be beautifully finished wood or the rustic style with pallets. Many manufacturers will have pallets they would like to get rid of, so if you don't mind a bit of sanding this will work too. There are so many ways to personalize this setup.
Just think of the things you can get off your counter or vanity and somewhere where you can reach it and see it front a center.

Tinting Mason Jars to Add Color

Tint Your Jars for Added Fun and Brighten up a Bathroom!
If you rent your home and need more storage and you just don't have the floor room, using the vertical walls is definitely an idea. You could also hang little baskets on the wood as well, but there is something really cool about these jars especially when tinted and if you use a dark stained piece of wood for them to attach to, they will really pop.
When renting you are usually allowed to hang pictures, so just use the picture hangers on the back of the wood, but if you own your space and you want to hang a lot of jars, you could fix it right to the wall so that it won't move at all.
Bathroom Storage Ideas
There are so many ways to create storage in a bathroom no matter what the size, and so many cool products on the market such as the Pedestal Sink Vanity or the Over the Door or over the toilet area, even shower storage but having things separated and where you can see them is what makes these mason jars fun!

Using chalk paint, sand paper and sealing wax, you can totally change the look of your jars.

The sealing wax seals everything and then the buffing cloth buffs them to a sheen, it is best not to use glossy, but really this is your project so anything goes!
