Ok guys.  Get ready for some cuteness.  I seriously LOVE how these gifts in a jar turned out!  If you have been thinking about Christmas already (like me), you probably already have a long list of people you need gifts for.  I love gift giving.  It’s one of my most favorite things to do.  The gifts I like to give are never super expensive or really extravegant.  I love giving simple gifts that the recipient can enjoy.  Sometimes that is something homemade or something that costs just a few bucks.  I do like to package them up really fun and cute.  A excellent package makes a gift that much more special.  That is why I love these Christmas gifts in a jar.

If you know someone who loves to get pedicures or manicures, this gift in a jar is perfect for them.  I put a pair of comfy socks, nail clippers, emery boards, a buff block, cuticle pushers, toe separators and my favorite color of nail polish into a jar.  It was a tight fit, but I got it all in there.  Then I traced the lid of the jar onto some Christmas scrapbook paper and cut out a circle that fit just perfect under the ring lid of the jar.  I added some festive ribbon and attached a cute tag.  A simple but thoughtful gift.  I created the cute tags and you can download the merry mistle-toes tags to use for your christmas gifts in a jar.

I absolutely love the smells of the holidays.  Now you can gift it to your neighbors!  Get the recipe and tags for this stove top potpourri, add the ingredients to a jar.  Just make sure you get small oranges that will fit in your jar.  A quart jar will actually hold enough for double the recipe.  Once your jar is filled and your tags are printed, just add a circle of festive scrapbook paper to the top and tie on the tag.  I just love the colors of this gift.  I like to have this on the stove all during the  Thanksgiving and Christmas seasons.

One of my absolutely gifts to give are notecards or notepads.  I think I love to give them, because I love to get them.  I like to have notecards on hand, just in case I need to send someone a thank you or just to let them know I’m thinking about them.  There are always a ton of cute notecards in the dollar sections at Target or at the craft stores.  I tend to stock up whenever I go near a basket of notecards.  Why not stick a couple notecards or notepads, along with a nice pen in a jar.  Decorate with some scrapbook paper and a ribbon and you are all set!  And of course, gifts in a jar need a cute tag.  You can download the Merry Christmas Note tags to attach to your gift.  There is also a happy birthday note tag version.

There you have it.  3 Christmas gifts in a jar that don’t take a lot of time or a lot of money.  Plus all these free printables make it that much easier!

It’s amazing how taking a couple extra minutes to package gifts cute, makes a gift much more special.

Happy Gifting!
