Easy Christmas Gift in a Jar + Basket Ideas | 7 Favorites Anyone Would Love | 2023

[@shelleykenyon8365]

HI THERE a mug and a spoon would be fun too that's what I do , I've carved a wooden spoon for mine.

[@shvat26]

Soup in a mason jar and a loaf of homemade bread. If you and the recipient can refrigerate the gift, give liquid cooked soup. If not, give a dry mix, either homemade or a store brand with additions - beans, root veg, dehydrated veg, grated cheese.

[@cherylcain890]

Great idea’

[@shvat26]

@ glad you like the idea!

[@dsims868]

My favorite has to be the beautiful cup idea. How fun to put a swiss miss cocoa pack, a snack ziplock with marshmallows sprinkles and/or chocolate chips. All self contained. On the outside tie a candy cane to the bow. They just add hot water and stir with the candy cane. Hot water is free most places these days. How cute and inexpensive. You could make a bunch of them to hand out daily to make someone feel special. Like your favorite cashier at the grocery store or the nice lady in the drive through at your favorite restaurant, bus driver, a neighbor, homeless person, teacher, the receptionist at your doc office, librarian ...I would feel special if someone gave me one. It feels so good to give! Thanks for these ideas!

[@dsims868]

Hmmm, the wheels are turning.. i love them all. On the gable boxes you could paint it with a white marker to look like a ginger bread house. Thanks for these great ideas and for inspiring us. Giving does the mind and soul good!

[@pamelataylor3537]

Love all your ideas. Thats what I’m doing this year. I’m very short in funds so I’m just doing a gift up in a basket or box, even for my grandkids. I’ve been collecting for a little while so I’m hoping that everyone likes them. Yours look awesome even the packaging Jen. TFS your ideas with all of us.

[@melanytodd2929]

They'll LOVE them ❣ Loads of love from South Africa 🇿🇦 ❤

[@melanytodd2929]

Food prices have skyrocketed! 3x since 2021!!!😢

[@brendabell6289]

They will feel Special receiving one! 🎄🥰

[@susieroy8565]

Same here.

[@Lisa-cg9vv]

I love how beautiful and different they are! 🎉

[@amandabourland2518]

Those are all great gifts. I love getting cocoa, and cake in a mug.

[@amandabourland2518]

@Giveaway_winner_-Dm what is the number I need to text to?

[@amandabourland2518]

Nevermind I found it

[@catherinezilber7677]

The cocoa ornaments would be cute as favors at each place setting or in a basket to take after a potluck or cookie exchange.

[@audreyclemens8248]

I liked them all. I really liked the kcup coffee cup idea for a simple gift to workmates.

[@paulagarretson2988]

If u put all the marshmallows on top not all the hot chocolate gets some. I'd layered the marshmallows with the amount of hot coco u would use for a cup.

[@ShannB650]

These gable boxes and the shreds, with the twine and the ribbon really pull the whole gift together and give it a nice elevated look! Thank you for the inspiration ✨

[@carlamacedo3537]

I don’t have a favorite cause I love them all!! Nicely done!!

[@Julie-oj9re]

Thank You for sharing these wonderful gift ideas. Your very creative.

[@roxangel6271]

I love when you do these homemade Christmas gifts. Love the wrapping and tags. 🤎🌿

[@sharroncasey9739]

I love the gift ideas..I'm one that loves making gift baskets n putting together smaller items as well..tfs.

[@debraspringers2098]

You always make everything look so beautiful! I love the gift idea 🎄

[@sassyherbgardener7154]

I always love your gift ideas, and the wrapping is beautiful! There is so much ribbon and twine wasting, though. I leave my ribbon and twine on the spool while making the gift, if I see I have too much, then I roll it back on the spool, then make my bow. I never have any more waste than a half inch, for trimming the ends. You could do this ahead of time, too, if needing pieces already cut for your video. It makes your ribbon and twine go a LOT further!!

[@nancywhitten2585]

I sure enjoy the Christmas music for the video!

[@brendablaine8392]

Also maybe add a gingerbread man cookie cutter or a mug with coco mix

[@RachelASmith697]

8:29 I know how to get your bow to lay straight. There's a TED talk called, "How to Tie Your Shoes." It will show you how to tie a bow that has the loops go side to side and not up and down.

[@cherylbrowning4588]

Such great ideas, love the single serving of hot chocolate in a Christmas ornament! Genius! Thank you,

[@cristinavargas990]

Amazing ideas ! Thanks for sharing!. Greetings from my country COSTA RICA.

[@cindyclark9145]

Genius…every single thing is GENIUS!!! 🌲🌲🌲

[@loriclarke1142]

I love all the gift ideas. I like the ideas of the baking ingredients and jars. We have Homesense in Canada, so I will be looking there for gifts. I feel the way you wrap or present gift can take gift to the next level.

[@robynmax8719]

I made the beer bread and waffle jars last year…yeah!

[@darlenepeace9578]

Great gift ideas and such nice presentation. You do that so well. Thanks for sharing😊

[@deniseaschmann4225]

[@sherrybollock8119]

The postal gift basket

[@susanbenton8181]

[@jill8542]

So cute. I do “bar in a jar” gifts for my over 21 year olds. Just a few tiny bottles in a jar.

[@debdobrosky8139]

Love all your ideas!!!🌲

[@amyallen5785]

I am going to give the brownie mix. Also gifting a brownie pan to go with it (they are $4.99 @ Hobby Lobby). Last year I gave the beer bread mix (it's delicious!). I love the way you package handmade gifts. They are beautiful. Thank you for all these great ideas.

[@MotherThyme]

I love that idea! I almost did a brownie pan too! You can add in a little tea towel as well and what a sweet and thoughtful gift! I'm so happy you enjoyed the beer bread too! It's one of my favorites! I make it all the time as well! It's so yummy! Have a lovely weekend!

[@kellyrodgers1829]

I absolutely love receiving gifts such as these ideas! The wheels are turning in my head (Lol!), thank you for the inspiration.

[@kubiknancy]

Love, love, love your videos! Thank you! Would love to see some male-specific jars or baskets, if possible. My son is a single Dad and I'd love to put one together for him from his 4-year old daughter.

[@lydianieuwlandt7912]

Such simple beauty and creativity, thank you for sharing your ideas , and thank you for your walk with Christ . Have a beautiful holiday!

[@MotherThyme]

Thanks so much! I'm so happy you enjoyed these ideas! Have a blessed weekend!

[@angelahagood3639]

I love giving gifts like this because many folks are strapped for cash this time of year. We go to get-togethers and the hostess asks everyone to bring a $5.00- 10.00 gift and that’s challenging. But for ten dollars I can make a lot of jar gifts! Once I gave a fellow student a whole inexpensive basket full of my home canned jams, spaghetti sauce, etc. She loved it because she doesn’t can. You always have the best ideas! 🎄🥰🙌🏻

[@MotherThyme]

I’m so happy you enjoyed these ideas! I just posted a new gift in a jar video too! You can watch it here - kzbin.info/www/bejne/d5OcZnecmMirhJIsi=2ZLFSAydE80xXwIA Have a great evening!

[@chucky6367]

Wow stuff must be cheap there! For $10 l can get 250g of cacao 😄

[@dianastrauss2847]

No faves.....loved them all!!!!!!!!

[@susanbrechbiel7033]

LOVE THEM ALL! I liked the ho5 chocolate n the candle the best, but all are great! Great video n thank you for sharing! 😊❤️🎁💕⭐️

[@judymooney]

I'm tired of spending so much money for gifts - hair dresser, receptionist, acquaintances ...so this year I am using your wonderful ideas to let people know I appreciate them without spending a lot of cash. Homemade is always my favorite anyway. Thanks for many ideas.

[@staceykersting705]

WOW! Most 'basket' ideas I've found online are super cheap looking or terribly expensive. THANKS for saving me and so many others this Xmas! I'm excited to put some of these gifts together. I'm sure my friends will love them!

[@karenallen3486]

I loved all of your Christmas 🎄 gift ideas! You are awesome!

[@lorrainepixler461]

Love these gift ideas, so pretty yet so affordable. Thank you for sharing.

[@dawnnewell237]

Great ideas for inexpensive but festive gifts. Thanks for sharing your ingenuity! 👍🏻👏🏻🎁

[@pamelaoconnell6723]

I’ve recently discovered your channel and love all of your ideas for Gifts in a Jar. I am going to go through your past videos and watch them as well. I noticed you use several Wegmans brand products in many of your gift baskets so I wondered if you were located near me in Rochester. I did read in your blog bio that you live in the Buffalo 🦬 area. We’re kinda like neighbors with both of us in western NY 🤗

[@grekahg3938]

I found you last year on KZbin and loved when you created these little delightful gifts… and now this year is such a fun treat! And you’re absolutely right who wouldn’t want to get one of these little gifts especially an unexpected gift. I love the little K cup throwaway cups. Thank you for the free tags! Merry Christmas season to you and yours 🎄

[@jocrews1087]

LOVED this video! Ooooo & the packaging!❤❤

[@anahuron6440]

Oh my! Thank you for these beautiful ideas...not tacky at all! My favorite is the coffee cup!

[@candymurray2766]

Love them all.

[@plantswithgigi3430]

These are great- do you have any on a smaller scale? I like to buy my coworkers a token gift but can’t afford 10+ dollars each. I like the to go coffee cup and the ornaments- any others?

[@debbymccauley4774]

Love your ideas and wrapping. I love using the clear bags for basket wrapping. Sometime I go out cut greens off certain evergreens and tie them on the pkg or basket.

[@eleanorrkuntzi6422]

Wonderful, thoughtful gift ideas. Thank you so much!

[@leahelliott7417]

Love these ideas ❤
