    Look up recipes for making your own balms, lip glosses, and lotions. These jars would be perfect. They can give them as gifts.

    Make homemade jam! What a wonderful thing to pass on to grandchildren, the idea that homemade is better, cheaper and lots of fun! Depending on how many jars you have, this could be strawberry one time, peach the next, and so on. Depending on how many children are involved, divide up the project into helping tasks.

    For projects for kiddos fill with colored sand designs, make mini snowglobes, paint with letters for a holiday saying and glue onto a block of wood, paint with a clear coating (on the inside) and make a mobile with string and sticks. Sky's the limit.
