Hanukkah Treat Jar with Lisa Spiegel



Hanukkah Treat Jar

The first night of Hanukkah was on Wednesday November 27th this year, which is the earliest it has ever or will ever be in my lifetime.  We are celebrating both Thanksgiving and Hanukkah on the same night. I thought it would be fun to come up with a Hanukkah in a Jar kit for the kids. 




 Inside the mason jar (perfect for kids because it's plastic!) is a set of Hanukkah candles tied in twine, a nice new dreidel, yummy chocolate coins (or gelt), the instructions for the dreidel game printed on photo paper and the words to the prayers for the candles as well as a traditional Hanukkah song. 


I stamped a Happy Hanukkah tag, tied it to the lid with seam binding ribbon and added the beautiful felt snowflake to the top of the jar (I love how the middle of the snowflake is the shape of the Star of David!). Each child will have a different top to their jar (as the felt set comes with several different snowflakes) so they can distinguish their jars and can keep all their gelt winnings to themselves!  This was very easy to put together for the kids, and I know they are just going to love having their own Hanukkah Jar!  If anyone would like to make their own Hanukkah jars I would be happy to email them the files for the Dreidel Game and the prayers.  Just leave a comment with your email and I'll get it right out to you.  Happy Thanksgivikuh!

Santa Mason Treat Jar with Daisy Cut Lid by Jenifer Cowles

Have you seen our new plastic mason jars with matching daisy cut lids?  I love that they won't break in little hands and that our paper straws fit perfectly inside the holes of the lid - so easy and cute. 

Jenifer has designed a clever Santa treat jar that would be a cute addition to any teacher gift basket, basket of cookies for a neighbor or even a fun gift for a coworker when filled with cocoa mix and marshmallows.

Mason Jar Treat Bags - Halloween Themed


Mason Jar Treat Bags
Curtsey Boutique
I've had this idea floating around in my mind for some time. I wanted to turn the glassine bags I offer in the shop into Mason Jar Treat holders. I think they turned out cute. I really like the hint of baker's twine accenting the buttons and who doesn't love seam binding.  Its available in so many colors!  This seam binding is vintage and was a wonderful treat my mom found for me in a thrift shop.

Just think of all the fun treats that could go inside:

Jelly Beans
Almonds
M & M's
Candy Corn
Gummy Bears
Skittles
Mints
and on and on, and on!

To fill the bags, you just slide the topper off, toss in a handful of yummy treats and slide the topper back on. I adhere the topper to the bags by gently holding up the scallop edge and adhering to the bag with either glue dots or hot glue.

I'll be handing these out at my church's trunk or treating activity.

I will also be doing these in a Valentine's Day theme for the girls treats at school.

The treats and the bags are available in the shop.




Have a great day,
