Baby Food JARS!!

SO I seen a post tonight on .. Thebump.com about ideas to do with baby food jars
I recycle them.. or reuse them when I make some of Nolan's Food
But other great ideas are:

Save them and orgainze screws and bolts
Also you can fill them with candy and tie a ribbon them and use the jars are your lo first b-day party
make wax candles to put inside

Snow globes - Glue a small object to the inside of the lid - a plastic figurine, f, etc. Add glitter, beads, or foil confetti, etc. Fill the jar with equal parts water and corn syrup, add food coloring if desired. Seal the lid onto the jar using a watertight sealant - the kind used for aquariums, or the stuff found in the plumbing section of your hardware store. Put a bead of sealant on the threads of the jar and on the inside threads of the lid. Close it up, leave overnight to dry. Kids love this!
