Tuesday's Trash to Treasure: Thankful Jar

Today's tutorial isn't necessarily "trash to treasure", but it's something my family is starting today (Nov 1), so thought I'd share the tip!

Reuse: Decorative Jar

Materials:
*Jar
*Paper
*Ribbon
*Tape/Scissors/etc

The idea behind this is, each day until Thanksgiving we want to write something we are thankful for (generic, specific to that day, etc) and put the papers in the jar (doubles as a table centerpiece), and on Thanksgiving we'll read what we were thankful for throughout the month!

Choose your jar, and decorate the outside how you wish! (Sorry, not much inspiration there, so be creative!)



To make the papers, I cut about 1/2"-3/4" strips wide & 8" long. Make your length according to the height of your jar.
