Mason Jar Blessings

October 2, 2013 by Courtney Sanchez Leave a Comment

Mason jar decorating idea: Mason jar blessings

I have been seeing these jars all over Pinterest. I think they call it their thankful jar or memory jar, but I liked the sound of Blessings Jar. I used an old canning jar I had around the house.

Whenever something special happens (or I’m just really happy about something), I just write it down on a piece of paper and drop in into my jar. I even got my husband in on the idea.

…I even got my husband in on the idea.

Since I use a lot of scrapbooking paper for the holidays, I save the scraps and use it as my paper. So in February, I used Valentine paper, Springtime I used Easter/Spring paper and so on and so forth.

I keep my Blessing Jar in the livingroom. I can see it everyday and remind myself of the many blessings I have.

My friend found this at Target and got it for me. I just LOVE and use it to keep my scraps in.

I’m still trying to figure out what I can do with them at the end of the year. Maybe add it to a scrapbook or make a college. I guess we’ll see in January what I come up with.
