I never really had until one day when I was doing my grocery shopping, and tissues were on my list. Then I was in the tissue aisle and had a hard time finding a box that would go well in my bathroom. I mean come on, your tissue box has to fit in with your decor&#8230;right?!<\/p>\n<p>Then I thought how cool it would be to have a nice piece of decor in my bathroom that would hold tissues! I would never have to worry about finding a tissue box that fit in with my bathroom again. And we are also talking about saving precious life minutes here. No more wasting time in the tissue aisle!<\/p>\n<p>So, I made a super cute Mason jar tissue holder. It looks great and will always work in my bathroom.
