Mason Jar Gift

Mason Jar Gift
Andrew and I made a trip down to Red Star to visit the in-laws for the Labor Day Holiday. Mrs. Lisa (my mother-in-law) taught me how to make jelly. We made grape and strawberry. YUM! We also make bread and Cinnamon Rolls (but that's another story). I thought this would be a great idea for a Christmas gift for the women at church.
Supplies:
Mason Jar
Small Square of Fabric
Ribbon
Wire (optional)
* I like the wire to connect the fabric to the mason jar (you'll see below), but other options is to hot glue the fabric, or place the fabric under the lid, before you screw it tight.

Lay the square piece of fabric over the mason jar. Make sure it's big enough to at least cover the lid. My piece is a little big, but it still worked out fine.

Take the wire, and twist it around the mason jar and make a "twist knot" like below. This will hold the fabric in place. I think the wire just makes it easier for whoever you're giving it to, to get it off.
Next, take your ribbon, and tie a bow around it. The bow makes it pretty, and hides the wire!

Now how easy was that?! You have a cute gift!



Happy Craftin' Y'all!
