Many products that we buy each week are kept in glass jars, so rather than filling your recycling bin, why not use them?

We picked out five ways you can use jars to make your home pretty and decorative. Decorate your jar with paint, clear glue and glitter or anything else you ‘d like and use them for the following purposes:

1. Flower vase
Jars make great vases – even the small ones will look cute with some daisies and buttercups.

2. Candle holders
Put some pebbles, sand or even old buttons and fill your jar a quarter full with it. Place a tealight on top and light. Instant fancy candle. Never leave a candle unattended in your home.

3. Glasses
It makes us look like hipsters, but who cares, we love it. If you have lots of people coming over and know you don’t have enough glasses then use jars! Decorate them with some ribbon, pop a cute straw in and serve your favourite cocktail.

4. Make-up brush/pencil holder
Finally, a neat and organised vanity table/work desk.

5. Organising your kitchen
Spices, flour, sugar, coffee, tea; you can organise your shelves using jars and cut down on the boxes and bags that take up room and make your cupboards look cluttered. Clean jars, label them with their contents and embrace the aesthetic effect on your kitchen.

A cruel – but more importantly, hilarious – prank has emerged to mark the impending release of horror film, Devil’s Due.

The movie is about a newlywed couple who find themselves pregnant following a particularly mysterious night of their honeymoon.

As the weeks pass, the husbands starts to notice alarming changes in his wife and it isn’t long before things get downright terrifying.

To “celebrate” the release of the movie the production company set up a scary prank to scare the living daylights out of the unsuspecting people of NYC.

The last thing you want is to have one of your close mates admit he has a thing for you when the feelings aren’t mutual.

Once he voices his feelings, there’s no real way to say no without hurting him and you can even risk wounding his pride to the point it will damage your friendship.

To avoid any awkwardness, try giving him a few subtle hints if you suspect if he’s hoping for more – this way you can make your point while avoiding ‘the conversation’:

  • Remind him he’s just like a brother to you
  • Say no to anything that even resembles a date
  • Lunchtime coffee is fine, but don’t overdo it
  • Encourage him to ask out a few other women

While the majority of us spend cold days in front of the fire place, Angelena Kelly from Washington thought it would be a great idea to take advantage of the drop in temperature.

She and her 7-year-old son thought it would be fun to make bubbles in the freezing cold weather. They mixed washing up liquid with karo syrup and water and then watched something magical happen.

This resulted in beautifully frozen soap bubbles of different shapes and form. If you look at the images , you will feel like Angelena just brought a fairy tale to life.

Katie Hopkins has been talking again and just like every other time she’s done that, she has offended someone.

However, this time we think she chose the wrong girl to pick on.

No stranger to confrontation (Christina Aguilera, Lady Gaga), Kelly Osbourne didn’t react well when Hopkins made a jibe about her mother Sharon’s plastic surgery.

Kelly branded Katie a “hypocritical, vile creature” and warned her never to talk about Sharon again.

However Katie wasn’t quite ready to set down the wooden spoon and continued to stir. She took to Twitter to say; “Just like Peaches and Jesus, Kelly has done well due to famous parents”.

Kelly then proceeded to call Katie a C U next Tuesday.

Not pretty, but neither’s Katie’s attitude.

The NME awards nominees are here and the ceremony has been scheduled for the 26th February at London’s O2 Academy.

The Artic Monkeys are back with a massive bang and have been nominated for eight awards this year! The nominations include Best Album, Best Live Band and a Hero of the Year nomination for frontman Alex Turner.

Not far behind them, and stiff competition for the Best Live Band award, is Haim. The Californian band will also be up for Best Music Video as well as five other nominations. Not bad for their first NME awards!

Villian of the Year nominees include Russell Brand, Miley Cyrus and Robin Thicke (shocker) amongst others. In a strange turn of events, Russell Brand will also be up for the Hero of the Year awards.

Arcade Fire, who wowed audiences with their new album this year, will be up for one NME award, as will Lily Allen who also marked 2013 as her comeback year.

Your hair looks perfect, you finish your make-up and just as you’re about to top up those lashes with a  final coat of mascara, your wand hits the side of your cheek.

We’ve all been there and it’s not the best feeling in the world at 7am.

To avoid starting your day with a clump of unwanted make-up on your face, here’s how to fix the common mistakes made during your morning rush.

Blush overload
Simply apply a bit of tinted moisturiser to your cheeks. If you use a cream brush, go over your cheeks with a translucent powder or a sponge.

Shiny face
Make sure you use a good toner after you cleanse your face. If you’re short of blotting paper, you could always use toilet paper instead.

Mascara gone wrong
Dip one end of a cotton bud into your moisturiser and remove the smudge, Use the other end to get rid of excess moisturiser.

Lena is the latest star to grace the much sought after front cover of Anna Wintour’s powerhouse, Vogue.

The cover features the quirky Girls star with a full face of make-up, which is very un-Hanna of her, but we’re sure even Hanna would dress up for Vogue!

Lena has been dressed in a red and white polka dot shirt buttoned to the top, which really suits her.

The talented young writer and director has been seen numerous times with Anna Wintour at events, so her cover might not come as much of a surprise to some.

Since Lena isn’t stick-thin and the pretty shot is from her shoulders up, critics will no doubt be out in full force just as they were over the recent Elle cover controversy with Mindy Kaling.

Lena doesn’t strike us as someone who would do something she wasn’t happy with, so let’s just enjoy it.
