Materials
  • Glass jars
  • Scrapbook paper, coloured paper, and/or fabric scraps
  • Ribbon
  • Candy

  • Method
  • Find some jars from recycling. Our jars are 650 mL pasta sauce jars.


  • Clean jars thoroughly. We soaked these in vinegar and water overnight to remove the labels and glue, then washed in the dishwasher. The vinegar will help get rid of any odours from previous food.
  • Decorate your jars. Wrap scrapbook paper or fabric scraps around the jar.


  • Decorate or paint your lid if you wish.


  • Fill the jars with yummy treats. We filled ours with chocolate and yogurt covered pretzels.


  • Tie with ribbon and add a gift tag for your special Valentine!
