Great recycle idea for jars! You just gave me an idea for Christmas gifts from my pets to other family pets this year. Think I'll take a stab at making homemade treats and "wrapping" them in jars this year, with the recipe(s) attached.

Thanks!

Mary

It was fun and easy, I used a plastic jar with a red lid and it only took Duchess a couple of times to figure out were the treats are kept, LOL.

A beginner rider at the stables was trying to saddle a horse. “Excuse me,” said the old hand, “but you are putting that saddle on backwards.” “How do you know,” snapped the student. “You don't know which way I’m going.”

I love this idea!  I would also like to bring up an idea shared by Mythica a few months ago for wonderful gift containers.

I have made these gift containers and filled them with healthy low calorie snacks for my TOPS friends.

Another idea for a really meaningful gift, especially for an older family member or friend is to make a memory jar:  Just have the whole family (or group of friends, etc.) write down special memories they have shared with the intended receiver and put them in a decorative jar.  My sons did this for both their grandmothers several years ago and both of them cherished this gift throughout the remainder of their lives.
