TIPS
A half yard of fabric should make eight wide mouth jar covers.
At times, it may seem impossible to make all of the jar ingredients fit, but with persistence, they do all fit.
For a great gift, fill a large soup pot with jar mixes, pot holders, kitchen towels, cookbooks, recipe cards and a ladle.
Small appliques or embroidery can be added to the center of a fabric cover to further personalize the gift.
For a different look, place a small amount of stuffing under a fabric cover before attaching to "puff" the top.
Fill a soup gift basket with a soup jar mix, crackers, a big soup mug and a journal.
To make a gift in a jar fancier, decorate it with a doily and ribbon.
For an out of the ordinary gift, try placing the jar mix in a mixing bowl along with kitchen utensils, cookbooks, recipe cards, towels and pot holders.
For a special touch, attach a wooden spoon to the jar.
