I had never used mason jars before I moved to the south and let me tell you, they are wonderful.
They are the number one most used item in my house during the vegetable growing season.
I use them for fresh water bath canning of vegetables, sauces,fruit jams and the like.
It would not be unusual to go to visit a neighbor and be served a iced tea in one of these jars as well.
Not a gardener?
Want are some other ways to use them?
Candle holders...
Lightning bug holders..
Or
How about creating a handmade gift?
Mix up your favorite brownie or cookie recipe (dry ingredients only) put it in one of these jars. Attach handwritten directions and a bow and you have created wonderful hostess or holiday gift.
