Gifts in a jar

Christmas is a month away so I thought I would share some gift ideas that are under $10. These would be great for your friends. I did a manicure/pedicure jar, a stationary jar and the classic lolly/chocolate jars. I'm sure you could think of a lot more. I bought the jars at Big W - they were six for $6. 

Manicure/pedicure jar - Total cost $8
Jar - $1 from Big W
Nail polish - $1 each from K-Mart (I bought a pack of eight for $8) 
Hand cream and nail file and buff set - $4 on sale from Priceline
​Nail polish remover wipes - $1 from K-Mart

Stationery jar - Total cost $9
Jar - $1 from Big W
Sticky notes - $2 from K-Mart
Highlighters - $2 from K-Mart
​Coloured pens - $2 from K-Mart

Chocolate or lolly jar
The price varies depending on your candy or chocolate of choice.
This would look great with:

• an assortment of jelly lollies (jellybeans, snakes etc.)
• Smarties or M&Ms
• candy canes
• Roses or Favourites
• any fun size bars (Mars, Kit Kats etc.)
• Maltezers

Some other suggestions for gifts in a jar:

• home made treats
• sugar free cacao balls (see recipe on 12/11/2020)
• hair accessories (scrunchies, hair clips, hair elastics)
• jewellery
• painting kit (mini paint tubes, brushes)
• DIY friendship bracelet kit - cotton thread, charms, instructions
• inspirational quotes (handwrite some of your favourite quotes or type them up on the computer)
• 100 things I love about you (handwritten or typed on the computer)
• pamper pack (mini face mask, cleanser, toner, moisturiser, cotton pads)
• sustainable jar (reusable straw, reusable product bags, wax wrap)
