Mason Jar clip art & Kids Printable

 There are 2 images of
Mason jars on The Graphics Fairy
site. I had an idea for an activity with
my kids, but needed a canning jar
with no lid. So made this version:


I printed out the page below,
gave it to my kids, and asked what
they would use to fill it.
 
My daughter said buttons and flowers,
and my son said fireflies, but then those
would escape since there's no lid.
 
We're going to have fun with this today!

 

How would you use it?

  1. Mason jars make me nostalgic because they bring back memories of childhood when my mother used to store a lot of food in them for the wintertime. She used to can green beans and cucumbers in them. I love these posts :)

    1. Mason jars are AMAZING! I use them for all sorts of things around the house... although, I've never actually done any canning with them... yet ;) Mom used to can salsa, green beans, and banana peppers. I remember the wonderful sights and smells that filled our kitchen... maybe I too will attempt canning one day!

  2. I used this graphic from Graphics Fairy as a tag for my daughter's gifts. I filled two mason jars with goodies, decorated the jars, printed the front and back of the graphic, glued them together and used as a gift tag.

  5. I use them for my old jewelry and some earrings that I only have one of. Love to look at them. My grandmother had two jars of buttons and I still have one. A treasure to me!
