I was just reading everyones ideas on what to do with your jars I think Candles are a lovely idea, you could also paint the glass with lots of bright colours (using glass paint) so that when the candles are lit it would make all sorts of shapes and colours. I've never tried this before but think it would look cool.<br />Take care :0)Nicolahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02077749964397488191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7338625525783202487.post-75232840075236003692010-04-21T09:38:27.622-07:002010-04-21T09:38:27.622-07:00I was at a thrift store and there was this jar tur...I was at a thrift store and there was this jar turned into a lamp.

You get a jar and etch on the side of it, "Vitamin L" which stands for Vitamin Love. Then you fill it with candies and everytime you do something with love for someone else, you get a treat, OR when someone does something for you. Kind of kiddish, but maybe other ideas can stem from that. :D (although, I do have a really good apple butter recipe I can send you and you can make it and some warm bread and give it as little 'hugs' from your mom.) You're amazing, Tiff..Stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10543951972329151687noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7338625525783202487.post-75406853043031586492010-04-14T14:57:18.467-07:002010-04-14T14:57:18.467-07:00Gosh, my first thought was put some nice candy -ma...Gosh, my first thought was put some nice candy -maybe something that your mom liked or you or both? Then, I thought buttons. Cute buttons, I get the idea that your mom loved colors- But then, I thought why not write quotes or wishes and put the little papers in there... so once in awhile when you need inspiration or just a little word you can open the jar and pick one..and when they are gone you can fill it again! Or if giving away, maybe some cookies? or fudge? Hope it helps :)Erika (for Arianna :)https://www.blogger.com/profile/15846003104358235486noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7338625525783202487.post-54367343441797803812010-04-14T14:33:41.982-07:002010-04-14T14:33:41.982-07:00Ohhh you could put cute buttons in it!!

Go through magazines and cut out photos and words that remind you of your mom... with some torn pieces of colorful tissue paper, decoupage these on to the jars, and now you have beautiful vases to hold flowers.
