15 Gifts in a Jar Ideas that They’ll Love

November 4, 2016 by Susan Bewley

Can you believe that Christmas is right around the corner? If you are anything like us, you have likely already started Christmas shopping or trying to plan what you are going to make for others this year. Sometimes  the coolest gifts I have received have actually been handmade ones, especially fun ones that I can cook at home. Gifts in a jar have always been a big hit with teachers, coworkers, and of course, to guests as Christmas parties. With them being so popular, I have considered giving out gifts in a jar to some of our friends and family this year. The problem is finding ones that are quick, easy, and won’t break the bank.

Knowing that many of you love giving unique gifts like us, we were excited to share with you 15 of the Best Gift in a Jar Ideas that we are certain anyone on your holiday list will love. To see each of the projects, just click on the picture below and it will take it you to a list of instructions on how to make these fun gifts yourself. So, which is your favorite project?
