How to make a teacher happy!!
I have 10 teachers that I wanted to create little gifts for...and I made these for around $6 each, mostly just using up my stash! I found the tall glass apothecary jars for $4 each at Marshalls, and the smaller round jars at the Dollar Store for $1 each. I went to Costco and bought a HUGE bin of those wonderful *melt in your mouth* peppermint candy for $7. Ohhhh...you should smell my craft area!! Peppermint!!
My big hint is that all of the ribbon is held in place with glue dots...just a few! I also handpainted the "candy" on top with Staz-On ink! I made the circular tags using my Spellbinders Die, then just using up scraps laying around, from Prima Leaves, Melissa Frances Tags, Glimmer Mist, Stickles, buttons, ribbons, brads, twine, I created these special candy jars. I have written personal messages on the back of each of the tags....Won't these put a smile on their faces??? Merry Christmas, and thank you to all of you teachers out there!
