Consol Glass is one of my favourite local brands and over the years I have accumulated an impressive collection of their bottles and jars. I also try as far as possible not use plastic for storage. Instead, I prefer a more sustainable and eco-friendly product like glass. As you can imagine, I was particularly excited to find out about the Consol Red Hot Sale!
Consol Red Hot Sale
Gone are the days where glass is simply something to drink out of. There are so many innovative and useful ways to make glass a part of your everyday life.
Consol is making it even easier and more cost effective for you to expand your range of glass products, by offering up to 50% off on select in-store items. The Consol Red Hot Sale is happening from the 28th August to the 9th September 2017!
The Best Things Come in Glass
Below are a few ways that I use Consol in my home, which will hopefully inspire you to make the change, because the “Best Things Come in Glass.”
Food
The four enemies of food packaging are light, oxygen, time and heat. It is also a fact that most storage options do not preserve the flavour or prolong the life of food. Glass is considered to be the safest and best material for retaining flavour. It may be heavier than other materials, but it is the best storage solution, as well as being environmentally friendly.
One of my favourite ways to use Consol Jars for food is by making Breakfast and Salad Jars. These are ideal for packed breakfasts and lunches, which you can take along to school or work. The Consol “Jar in a Jar”, which you see featured above and below has been reduced from R49.68 to R24.80.
Beverages
Another favourite of mine is the Consol Grip and Go Bottle. They are the perfect gym companion and so much better than using plastic bottles. I also like to have a bottle in my car, to keep hydrated during the day. If you make Raw Juices, they will stay fresh for three to four days if you store them in a Grip and Go Bottle, in the fridge.
One of the items I am keen to get my hands on is the Active Grip and Go bottle, with the convenient flip-up lid {seen above}. A bonus is that they are one of the items on the Consol Red Hot Sale! So instead of paying R32.41, you will pay R16.20.
I love using Mason Jars to serve cocktails when I am entertaining. I think it is fun and looks rather impressive.
Lighting
One of the hottest innovations by Consol is the Solar Jar. These have been extremely handy, especially during load shedding. You can also use them if you are camping or entertaining alfresco. They are also a fun form of table decor – all you need to do, is pop one or two pretty flowers or even a few lemons, inside the jar.
Storage
Last but certainly not least, Glass Jars are ideal for all kinds of storage around the house. I have found them particularly handy for makeup and beauty storage. Jars are also an excellent way to keep your craft items organised.
Not only is Glass timeless and trendy but it is extremely versatile and durable. Above all, I love the fact that Glass is recyclable and eco-friendly. So do not miss the chance to stock up on some fantastic Consol products and head over to the RED HOT SALE.
