Hair Clip Holder

I love putting gorgeous clips in my DD's hair and she is accumulating quite a collection so I really needed a pretty and practical storage solution for them. I decided to make my own using an empty Nutella jar. I started by painting the jar with pink acrylic pain, I used instructions I'd found on Pinterest. Here take the instructions,http://www.cape27blog.com/2012/08/diy-painted-mason-jars/. 
This technique meant that the jars remained glossy, here's how it looked
I left the paint to dry for a day and then started to spice it up a little. I started by creating a tag by using pastel scrapbook paper and then using letter stamps to label it. I also added a cute button. I then added string around the middle of the jar, keeping it secure with a sticker and placing the tag over it. I was really pleased with how it looked and it also makes for a pretty decorative piece in the nursery. 

How do you store your accessories? I'm always looking for cute storage ideas.
