As soon as I saw this idea, I knew I had to post it here! Print or write this onto a piece of card : Didn't you say "nothing"? When you were asked what you wanted for your Birthday, Anniversary, Graduation or Christmas. Don't you remember saying NOTHING? Well this time someone heard you & searched high and low to find this perfect gift for you. I chose a French Kilner jar as they are pretty & very useful but you could really use any jar you like!

1 Jar of Nothing (change servings and units)

Ingredients

  • 1 kilner jar
  • ribbon
  • paper

Directions

  1. 1
    Cut a small piece of paper - large enough to fit your saying on. It's nice to flute the edges or shape then slightly.
  2. 2
    Write or print the saying onto the paper & glue it to the jar.
  3. 3
    Tie a piece of ribbon around the lid & form into a bow.

    Oh my, this is hysterically funny! My mother used to reply "Nothing" at every gift-giving opportunity when asked what she'd like - I so wish I'd seen this years ago. Of course, I'd always get her something, but when I ran out of ideas, she was of no help. It would have been funny to see the look on her face when presented, for once, with exactly what she'd asked for... followed up by a "real" gift, of course. And she'd have TOTALLY gotten the humor. (She's the original source of my warped sense of humor!) Thanks for the smile today! :D

    Cute idea...when my little sister was in second grade they did something like this, but blew kisses in a jar. So it was a jar full of love. Mom still has it on a shelf and my sister is 35 years old.
