Hi KC! I’ve found your Blog through The 36th Avenue Thursday link party. I always think that home made gifts are so much more personal and I really enjoy making them! I love the gift in the jar and wanted to do that this year. Thank you for sharing the printable!
Thanks, Helen! I totally agree that homemade gifts are more personal. I also agree that the making them is fun. I also like the planning and trying to find something I think that person will really like. Fun, fun, fun!
Take care,

I love the etched Pyrex dish! I’ve been wanting to try it, but haven’t built up the courage yet. I love homemade gifts, too!
The etched Pyrex is a favorite around here, too! It really isn’t hard to do. I think you can totally make them.
Have fun if you give it a try.

Thanks so much! So glad you have an abundance of mason jars and now have a fun way to use them. I think they are so much fun.
