    I have some great patterns that are for table runners on tiny laminated cards. I am thinking of kitting these up and putting them in jars! Do you think they will sell in jars, or should I use vinyl clear zippered bags? The bags cost 3 times as much as the jars!

    I would think jars would work. Fun packaging.

    Jars or nice big mugs? Very nice idea :)

    I can see them with the fabrics fanned out in a nice arrangement. NOT that I could do the arrangement, lol!

    Like that idea - I saw it somewhere else, but can't remember. Only, it was table topper/runner kits inside the jar.

    I agree, the jars are fun packaging. You can even pink a circle to matching or coordinated fabric to the kit to go over the lid as well

    I think the jars would get more attention. Use the jars. Cute idea.

    Jars! It's something that would catch the eye and have them ask "what's this"?
