I don't know about y'all but I love jars. They come in all shapes and sizes for all sorts of reasons!
For saving fruit, for storing crafts, for decorations, candles, etc. etc.
I have decided that I want to do personal Christmas Jars for my family and close friends this year. I haven't often had the extra time on my hands to make each person their own unique gift. This gift idea can be used for so many different options.
you can jar, cookie mixes or drink mixes. what about s'mores!! yup, those too!
if you have a family member who likes buttons...go to your local craft store and get a bag (cheap) and fill up a jar. they will be so excited to have all sorts of colors and combinations.
Decorate them with embossing, sketching, tape/glue leaves on the outside for a autumn look, use ribbon and small pieces of fabric,
some jars even have bubble lids...these you can fill the lid with a decor or food also. Glitter is fun. or red hots!!
I'll add pictures soon so that everyone can share.
