I had stashed a bunch of jars thinking that someday they would come in handy for a craft project, and I was right. I made this the other day:
I just found a font I liked (Sunshine Poppy) and printed out the word "treats" and applied it to my jar. For the lid, I mod-podged some scrapbook paper to it and that was it (for a great tutorial on how to do that, go here.) It was so easy and quick. This would make a great last-minute gift idea for someone - after all, who doesn't love treats?? If you don't have scrapbook paper, you could also just spray paint the lid of your jar.
Speaking of jars, I made this the other day for a friend of mine who is going to Disneyland in a couple of months:
I love how this turned out! I saw something similar to this on Pinterest. Most of the ones I saw they spray-painted Mickey black - I liked how he looked just as is (got him at Dollar Tree) so I just used my E-6000 glue and attached him to the lid of the jar. I found the cute jar at either Marshalls or Ross, can't remember which, for $3. The lid was brown, so I just spray-painted it black.
The black vinyl was made using a font called "Minnie" (and yes, there is also a font called "Mickey".) I think my friend is going to go crazy over this!
I've done more projects with my Silhouette, including using heat transfer vinyl, so stay tuned!

Sandy, these are adorable and look like they are much more in creating then you said. How wonderful. Will start saving some jars!
Great ideas. I don't think I'll be canning much after this year so here's a good way to use some of my jars.
