A sweet idea for giving Valentines to your best friends! Just buy a bunch of small, quilted canning jars… Put a little circle of vintage fabric or a cupcake paper between the seal and lid ring…and fill with your friends’ favorite things…
~earrings or a ring
~little bottles of Lollia perfume
~chocolates and other candies
~conversation hearts
-a cool fortune you got in a fortune cookie
~confetti and scrapbook embellishments
~stickers
~Tickets for :
-lunch
-a movie
-a manicure
-spa treatment
-a mocha or latte
-babysitting
-a pizza delivered to their home
Use your imagination and have fun!
XO,

Love this! It just goes to show how you don’t have to spend a lot to give a meaningful, beautiful gift.
So glad you like this idea! I can’t wait to see you so I can give you yours! 😉
LOL I love this idea too – especially since I have a ton of pretty papers and lots of left over canning jars. Could make some cute jars for the daycare kids too!
that’s what’s great about this craft…accessible materials and a fun, creative twist on the usual valentine 😉
Oh that would be!!! I have A LOT of supplies, enough for a small store. LOL Been scrapping/stamping for 12 years now and was a demonstrator for a couple of companies. Lots and Lots of unused supplies – would definitely love to share!! And crafting with friends is soooooo much more fun than doing it alone!
I agree! Nothing quite as fun as getting a bunch of friends together to create! 🙂
What a great idea, Melissa .
I have done this with a shoebox:) But I love the jar idea.
