Upcycled Date Night Jars for Valentines
I had received a lovely gift of some jarred spice and kept the jars once the spice was gone. I decided to update them into some spicy love date night jars!
I used stain glass paint but any paint could do or even sharpies! I first made hearts on the jars - anywhere from 1 to 4 and then filled in the rest of the jar in a solid color. They turned out pretty good even with my limited painting skills!
Then I brainstormed a dozen date ideas, typed them on the computer, printed and cut into strips. I didn't want hubby to see the dates in advance so folded up them up and slipped them into the bottle!
I included a good variety of things to do at home to a weekend in the mountains. I made a few rules too - he had to use the date within 30 days of opening and couldn't open a new jar until after the date! If you have some great date ideas please share!

I love this idea! It's like a coupon book but with a surprise.
