Remember to place the lid on the batting before gathering the fabric. The hard part is stuffing the top thru the ring. Make sure that the batting doesn't get under the lid or it will be hard to screw the ring onto the jar. I also use all purpose tacky glue to glue the fabric to the bottom of the lid for added strength.

I would have used the hot glue gun but I wanted a puffy top and for it to be tightly fitted. Everyone has their own way of doing things and that's what makes and keeps things interesting. Atleast for me it does! :-)

Carrie these make me think of my dad's workbench. He would keep all the nails and stuff in old jars, like baby food or jelly jars. One jar, tucked in the back, was always full of the Hershey's semisweet chocolate chips! These jars would be the perfect size for a little snack jar by the machine, for extra energy.
