These jars started life as Gold Blend coffee jars. They are quite small and when they were empty and washed I thought they would look lovey filled with mini eggs. The paper was in my large collection of patterned paper that never gets used, but I thought I would push the boat out this once! The 'ribbon' around the jar and lid is actually strips of chocolate velvet paper. I don't know where I got it from, but I wish I had bought more than 1 sheet! I cut out a flower from the paper and stuck it to a nestabilities circle for the top of the lid. For added texture I punched out small circles of the velvet and stuck these over the dots on the flower. The tags were cut with a sizzix die and stamped with some java chalk ink. I had some iridescent elastic pink string which came free with a magazine last year and it was just the thing to attach the label to the jar. After Easter the tags can be removed and the jars reused for storage.
