.99 Cent Jar into Holiday Gift ~

On my last trip to Michaels I picked up this .99 cent jar. I loved the shape and began thinking how I could transform it into a little something more and possibly a gift idea too.

I gathered some supplies...


And ta-da!

I printed out an image, grabbed a little double stick tape and started assembling.
Now this was just my first attempt. I love the price, had a fun time and was able to use items I had on hand. I don't know about you, but I have A LOT of misc. items on hand - a little bit of this and a little bit of that. I think these could make a great hostess gift - you could use a holiday image and even fill it with something sweet. I picked up a larger jar at Goodwill yesterday, so stay tuned for more!

  3. Cute! I love giving (and getting) something in cute jar like that. Today I was at TJ Maxx and saw a wooden plaque with a crown on it and thought about you. Then at Walmart I bought a box of Kleenex that had a Fleur de Lis on it and thought of you again! Is that weird???

  4. These bottles are fun to make and like you said they are a great way to use up some of the little bits and pieces that start to pile up. Your 1st attempt was perfect!
