How to Use Glass Jars for Kitchen and Home Organisation

Bring a touch of vintage charm to your kitchen with our Olde English Glass Jar collection. Available in sizes from 0.5L to 5L, these classic jars are ideal for storing everything from coffee, pasta, and flour to nuts, biscuits, and sweet treats.

Line them up on open shelves or tucked them away in your pantry; one thing is certain:  these jars transform everyday staples into something beautifully functional.

Why is it so deeply satisfying to open a pantry or fridge and see rows of neatly organised jars? Our Olde English range delivers on that joy with its generous sizing, airtight lids, and timeless design.

But the benefits go beyond the kitchen.  These jars can be used to organise bath salts in the bathroom, for dog biscuits or cleaning supplies!

Living more sustainably? These jars are a perfect companion for zero-waste living – take them to your local refill store for spices, nuts, or laundry powder. They're sturdy, easy to clean, and help cut down on single-use packaging.

The Olde English jars encourage mindful consumption, better organisation, and a bit of joy every time you open a cupboard.

Dry goods like oats, flour, sugar, lentils, pasta, and rice in labelled jars can be stored to declutter your pantry and avoid overbuying. Their clear design makes it easy to see when you’re running low. So clever.

Spa Vibes at Home: Create your own bath salts with this simple recipe (makes enough for a 500ml jar):

4 cups Epsom salts

30 drops essential oils (lavender, eucalyptus, citrus)

2 tbsp dried lavender

dried lavender or rose petals (cosmetic-grade only)

Mix well and store in an airtight jar. Add 2 tablespoons to a warm bath for a soothing soak.

Bonus Tip: A Better-Looking Laundry Corner

Decant laundry powder, bicarb, or pegs into large jars and pair with woven baskets and matching hangers to create a fresh, functional laundry space – whether it's a full room or a tucked-away nook.
