Gifts in a Jar

A gift jar is a creative and thoughtful way to show someone your appreciation. When you make a homemade thank-you gift jar, you give a personalized acknowledgment that truly shows how much you care. Because they are a gift from the heart, gift jars are the perfect way to say thank you to a friend, co-worker, girl friends, neighbors, teachers and family. The possibilities are endless, and remember they are a great starter to build a gift basket. For example, start with a jar of cookie mix, and add a kitchen towel, pot holder, and spatula, or homemade vanilla along with a batch of homemade cookies along with the recipe. Or just add a pretty ribbon and tag and you have a simple, stylish gift.
