Save the Jars!!

No, this isn't a political or environmental statement or post.  But! You really do need to save those jars.  Pickles, olives, jelly, frappuccino, sauces, etc.   Throw 'em in the dishwasher, remove the label and save for a rainy day.  (or a beautiful day!)  This is a great way to create a VERY inexpensive gift for anyone.  Take your jar and wrap some cute scrapbook paper around it and glue it.
