I already have quite a collection and wondered whether they were worth keeping or not.
I have taken the labels off and am using a couple for fingerpaint (for 3yo sis) Does anyone have any other ideas what to do with them? ------------- http://lilypie.com">

I saw a woman put food in the jar then the jar into a thermos of hot water to heat baby food when she was out, I thought that seemed like a good idea. ------------- Lindsey

Theres a cool christmas tree you can make with them at christmas.....
I have dozens of them sitting im py pantry and we use if we ever have leftovers from a tin or for making up yoghurt for the girls or painting, collecting bugs.. I dont really I guess I should just recycle most of them. -------------

If you make candles, they are stunning as "tealights", especially if you paint them. ------------- http://www.babysfirstsite.com">

| My nanna requested all of mine and in return I got a sample of every batch of jam, chutney and marmalade :) And so did all of her friends. |

Good ideas, thanks everyone!
The christmas tree sounds cool Daizy. I might keep a few to have on hand and make some calls around the local kindy's to see if they want some ------------- http://lilypie.com">
