| The snowman mason jar I bought for my sample was blue and had a sticker face in black. You can see it on the table. I decided to go to the dollar store and see what I could find to make a similar snowman ball jar. |
 |
| I found the red and white string and the gloves at the dollar store. The little mason jars and batting I got at Walmart and the bells I found at Michaels. |
 |
| The Sharpie's and paint markers I had but you can find these at Michaels or Walmart. The paint markers tend to run if not careful so sometimes it is easier to use the sharpie. It is permanent and does not run like the paint markers. |
 |
| Here is my version of the snowman ball jars. I put the glove on the jar lid stuffed with some of the batting to give the look of a hat. The sample jar I bought used the other glove for the stuffing. I thought the batting was a better idea and this way I could get two snowman jars out of one pair of gloves. I tied off the fingers of the glove with the red string and strung a couple of bells on each string. Then I just paint the faces on the jars. Pretty easy and now I can fill these with little chocolate candies and give them as gifts for Christmas. They would be really cute with red and white peppermint candies too. The glove is not glued to the lid this way you can easily remove the hat to get at the candy. Then just pop the glove/hat back on the snowman jar. These would make great teacher, neighbor, or friend gifts. Pretty easy to make less than 15 minutes to put a couple of these together and cost about $3.50 each to make. Hope your Christmas decorating and gift buying and baking are enjoyable and maybe you can find time to squeeze in a crafty gift like these snowman candy jars. Kris :) |

| PS. I just found these cute snowman jars on pinterest made with buttons after I already did my jars. This would have been too cute to use to make the faces too!!!! Kris :) |
