This project doesn't have stepped-out images because it really is that simple.
To start, stamp the Halloween image onto the wood tag.
Wood is porous, so don't be alarmed if the ink spreads a little.
Take a length of baker's twine, wrap it around the top of the mason jar, slip the tag on, and tie a knot.
The last step is filling the glass jar with candy.
I absolutely love candy corn, so of course, that was going in one of the jars. I would have filled all the jars with it if my kids hadn't complained. 😆
These jars are perfect gifts, and look so cute sitting on a desk or entryway.
