Mother's Day Candy Jars

I wanted to create a gift for all the mothers at my work and didn't want to purchase individual gifts. I have about 15 moms at my job so I used the idea of a candy "bar" and came up with this:

Supplies
Mason Jars
Printable Tags
Variety of Candy
Colored paper
Printer
Scissors
Double Sided Tape

Directions
I bought candy that I could create fun names for:
Hot Tamales-Hot Momma
Peppermint Patties-Mint 2 B A Mom
Gummies-Life is Sweet
Hershey Gold- Heart of Gold
Starburst-Star Mom
(The possibilities are endless of what names you could come up with...these are just some suggestions)
Place each candy in separate mason jars, then print tags from this link:
Chalk Style Printable Labels





You can print them using sticker printer paper or if you don't have any, I just used double sided tape to stick to the front of the jars. Then you could finish off the jars with a ribbon tied to the neck if you wanted..

DIY: Calming Glitter Jar

Calming Bottle Instagram Post I saw a great idea on Pinterest a while ago about calming glitter jars being used in the classroom. I have not used it in the classroom yet, but here's what I'm thinking... Students who are upset (not violently) can go to an area of the classroom away from the other students. The area can have a stuffed animal, journal, timer, stress ball, and or the calming jar. I looked around my house for a jar or container that had a flat top so it could be turned over and low and behold I found the Starbucks iced coffee bottle. Here is what I used and did: Need: A sturdy bottle with a flat top bottle of glitter glue (color of your choice) I had a bottle of black glitter glue loose glitter (color of your choice) I had pink rubbing alcohol (for sticky bottle label removal) hot water decorative tape super glue Steps: 1. First I removed the labels from the jar and soaked it in a hot water/rubbing alcohol bath, after it was soaking about an hour o...
