🦃 Thanksgiving Mason Jars Filled with Sweet & Nutty Treats! 🍁

Thanksgiving is right around the corner, and I’ve got the cutest little craft that doubles as a snack—Thanksgiving Mason Jars filled with nuts and candy. These jars are perfect for gifting, decorating, or just having a fun snack station at your holiday table. Let me walk you through how I made them.

What You’ll Need:

  • Mason jars (any size you like!)
  • Your favorite nuts (pecans, almonds, cashews, etc.) 🥜
  • Fall-themed candies (candy corn, M&M’s, or Reese’s Pieces work great) 🍬
  • Decorative ribbon or twine 🧵
  • A cute tag for labeling (Get your FREE Thanksgiving gift tags here!) 🏷️

How to Make Them:
1. Layer the goodies: Start by adding a layer of nuts at the bottom of the jar. Then, add a layer of candy. Keep alternating until the jar is full! It’s like creating an edible piece of art.

2. Add the finishing touch: Screw on the lid and tie a festive ribbon or twine around the top. If you have tags, write something cute like “Thanks for being sweet!” or “Happy Thanksgiving!”

3. Decorate (optional): Attach a faux leaf or sticker to make the jar extra festive. You can even go wild and add a mini turkey figurine on top for some holiday flair!

4. Gift or display: You can hand these out as thoughtful little gifts, or use smaller jars as placeholders or centerpieces on your Thanksgiving table, or just leave them on the counter for snacking.

I love making these jars because they’re so simple, customizable, and oh-so-festive! Plus, who doesn’t love a mix of sweet and salty?

You can tailor the jar to suit any dietary needs or personal tastes, which makes them even more special. It makes a great neighbor or co-worker gift, in addition for giving to family and friends!

So grab some jars, treats, and a little creativity, and let’s make this Thanksgiving extra sweet! Do you have any fun Thanksgiving crafts or snack ideas? Let me know—I’d love to try them!

Cheers to a season full of gratitude and good snacks! 🧡
