I purchased packets of apple cider mix and some cinnamon sticks.
I have several of these mason jars with handles on hand and thought they would be perfect for this!
And then I headed to my local thrift store for one sweater… Of course I left with a sweater, a mirror tray, two shop rags and a lamp but I only spent $8!
Now, remember, I DO NOT sew – I literally have no talent in that area in ANY way. However, I thought even I was capable of making the adorable little sweater jar warmers I’ve been seeing around.
I simply cut the bottom of the sleeve off and cut just enough to allow for the handle. I added two buttons and slits for them.
I am totally smitten with my little jar koozie. I, of course, used my Grandma’s buttons ๐
I added packets of apple cider mix to each of them and three cinnamon sticks a piece.
As far as Christmas in a jar goes, as for me, this is totally it!
