Hello,

I have 2 box's full of baby food jars. Does anyone know any crafts that I can do with them?

I make container candles so thats the first thing that came to my mind. Baby food jars make great container candles. You can get most of the supplies you will need at your local craft store.
You can decorate them with some raffia and a nice label. These are pretty and handy. Great for little gifts to friends and family.
Good Luck! :-) Juniper

You can make an ocean. Fill the jar about halfway with equal parts of water and oil (add a bit of blue food coloring to the water). Drop in a few small/tiny shells. Hot glue the lid onto the jar and tip the jar back and forth to watch the *ocean*.
