    I found a ton of these old zinc lids in the attic of our new house we are renting. Now I know what to do with them! :) Thank you for the tutorial.

    Thanks so much for sharing. I bought a box of the lids at an auction cuz they were cheap. They have been sitting around just waiting for something to be done. Can't wait to give it a try!!!

    Thanks for the tutorial...may I ask a price you think as fair for one?

    They are really pretty and I have lots of old calico IF I could find some tops...actually, I own a few for my Canister Jars but have never found any for sale.
