Debbie @ Confessions of a Plate Addict Now that is great, love the idea of almost free......I knew I have been saving all those jars for a reason.....haha......my honey had them all in a bin for garbage and I just happen to c them before the garbage and I thought I was going to have a heart attack to c them in the garbage......now if that is not hoarding, huh......I am going to make a candle in the top and ...» -
lol Yes, Sharon! It would have been a shame if they had been thrown away! Sounds like a cute gift!
-
I didn't carve my pumpkin for Halloween and it sat out on my porch all autumn...so what was I going to do with it for Christmas??? I turned it into Santa Claus, of course! -
-
Did you notice that you can't buy lids to fit these jars. -
I have seen alot of the posts about Mason jars and clearly didn't see the connection with spaghetti jars until now, dang I just threw 3 away last recycle day. Oh well, I have a clean one ready now. -
lol I threw some away before I realized what I had, too!
-
Small pinecones for the winter. -
I have been using spaghetti jars for keeping pasta in for several years, also y Gevalia coffee after it arrives. Keeps the pantry moths out of any food you want safe! -
Great ideas, ladies! I just need to eat more pasta sauce now! lol
-
Love these! I always save my pasta jars... and I choose the pasta according to the jar! -
I use them to keep dried beans, peas, choc chips, nuts, brown sugar, anything that needs clean, dry storage to stay fresh in my cupboard. And I have found canning jar lids that fit, to send easy to reheat meals with my college girl! -
I store my dry beans in them in the kitchen and shabby chic others up to store my ribbons and other pretty embellishments for crafting. -
Homeroad, Kathleen and Karen...more great ideas! I am getting inspired!
-
I use them to store spices, baking powder, etc. But I haven't been able to find Mason Jar lids to fit them. I just use the lids that come with the jar of spaghetti sauce.

Such a great Idea. One could also do shells and beach finds. Thank you for the post. -
Gabriel D, what a great idea. One could make little scenes in the jars with bits and pieces of found items and a picture for vacations and holiday trips. I have some of mine just in ziplock bags but hubs missed putting the last spaghetti sauce jar in the recycle. I have to rescue the jar from the recycle pile now and put the sand and driftwood from our last anniversary trip in it. Thank you.

Love your idea, Gabriel D! Yours, too, Kelly S!

My pleasure,

Supernewf! In the same exact section where you buy mason jars in the store is a box of lids and a box of screw tops. The lids are made in two pieces with flat metal lid with rubber around the edges for sealing when canning and the screw ring goes on the jar. I take it you have never actually purchased mason jars or canned food if you don't know anything about the lids for them. -
lol I am with Supernewf...canning is not my thing, although I have tried it. Thanks for the info on locating the lids, Gwyn.
