A question about : Ideas for glass jars

hi everyone,
drawing a complete blank here, blaming baby brain hehe. I have about 16 hexagonal 1/2 lb glass jars. Without lids for all but 2. And I cannot think of what to do with them!
spam me with ideas please? Either decorative or suitable for gifts I think.

Best answers:

  • Fill them all with sweets.... then eat your way through them
  • Wire round the tops to hang them and put t-lights in for lights outside in the nice weather.
  • Plant flowers in them
  • Not sure how old your baby is but when he/she is old enough to do some sticking, cut up some tissue paper, cover the outside of the jar in PVA glue and let LO decorate them then cover with another layer of glue as varnish. Stick a tea-light inside and they're nice in the garden or as pressies for relatives. Or you could do them yourself if you want something tasteful
  • i use small jars for drawing pins, paper clips etc, cake decorations, beads, nails, buttons, etc,
  • Outline designs with Pebeo Cerne Relief and then paint with glass paints. Use as candle / nightlight holder
    Fill with home made jams or chutneys.
