DIY Last Minute Presents... In a Jar!

Hey!

Sorry about not posting for a while, as I have been quite busy. Anyway, today's post is about last minute presents in a jar. It is really quite simple!
The main supply that is required is a maison jar. It can be in any size or shape.
Now for the fun part!
Fill the jar with a recipe for anything. Really!

Ideas
  • It could be their favourite cookie recipe and all you have to do is put the amounts of flour, sugar, baking powder, etc. and layer it up. Seal the jar and add a small tag around the rim with the instructions. Make sure to say how many cookies it makes, the oven temperature, and the length of baking time.
  • Another great idea is to make s'mores in a jar. Fill the jar with a layer of crushed graham crackers, chocolate chip, and marshmellos. Add a little tag or note attached to the jar.
  • You can also make powdered soap or scrub and fill the jar with that.
  • For party favours fill mini mason jars with different types of candy or chocolates.
  • Mason jars are very durable so you can even bake cake or dinner in the jar!
Have fun!
