My step father is an artist and prefers baby jars for paint storage, so I know there are always people looking for them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/to-keep-the-jars-or-not#post-724404 Thu, 18 Apr 2013 08:54:49 +0000 Chillybear 724404@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Send them to a day camp or nursery school! When i was the arts and crafts counselor we were ALWAYS looking for donations like that bonus points that the labels are already cleaned off. I dreaded that job. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/to-keep-the-jars-or-not#post-724285 Thu, 18 Apr 2013 08:15:43 +0000 abbydabbydoodlebug 724285@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Are you in/near Austin? I'm planning my sister in law's baby shower and I was going to use mason jars and things for it. I could take them off your hands. ;-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/to-keep-the-jars-or-not#post-724227 Thu, 18 Apr 2013 07:46:36 +0000 regberadaisy 724227@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@runsyellowlites: haha I was wondering where you got all the jars from! Got any possible baby showers coming up? </p> <p>If you absolutely have no use I would post them on craigslist! Or offer to another friend who might have a 1st birthday coming up? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/to-keep-the-jars-or-not#post-718271 Mon, 15 Apr 2013 20:17:27 +0000 wheres_c 718271@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ooh send one of the ones with cake to me! It looked delicious. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/to-keep-the-jars-or-not#post-718252 Mon, 15 Apr 2013 20:10:06 +0000 chopsuey 718252@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would probably get rid of them, but! Have you thought about selling them? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/to-keep-the-jars-or-not#post-718246 Mon, 15 Apr 2013 20:07:30 +0000 Dandelion 718246@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wouldn't keep them...but I'm not the creative type that can find a million uses for them. They would forever be in storage at my house, lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/to-keep-the-jars-or-not#post-718245 Mon, 15 Apr 2013 20:07:24 +0000 heffalump 718245@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If you have the space to store them I'd keep them. Never know when you can use them. I've seen jars used for wrapping small gifts, vases, all sorts of things. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/to-keep-the-jars-or-not#post-718236 Mon, 15 Apr 2013 20:04:23 +0000 runsyellowlites 718236@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So I did cake in a jar for P's party and have lots of 4oz baby jars now sitting in my kitchen.... some still with cake &amp; others empty. I'm not sure if I want to keep them or just trash them. We don't really use jarred baby food &amp; I really ONLY got them because I "came into" them... I wouldn't want to buy 60+ jars of baby food if I don't have to. lol</p> <p>1. I don't think I'd do cake in a jar again BUT I do still want to do the pudding I couldn't do &amp; I use them for that OR as favors next year... and with Pinterest I'm sure I could find even more ways to reuse them.</p> <p>2. The label glue was a bit tedious to get off BUT I was able to figure out, after about 2 hours of fruitless work, a better approach so if I really wanted to get more in the future it shouldn't be so hard.</p> <p>3. That's alot of jars to store....</p> <p>SO, would you keep the jars or reuse them later or send them off to the recycling center? </p>
