I would rather use pre loved jars, they are so abundant in thrift stores and so cheap!
I loved looking at the little scraps of labels left on them too!
I hope I can do those jars proud!
I've picked out some simple recipes and now I just need to dive in!
And if I am a hack at canning, I can use them for jargarita's!!!!



Now I am inspired!! Consider how much time I have been spending at the local Goodwill, I never even thought to check for old mason jars. Which would be a great idea, as my ex somehow ended up with all my canning supplies, including the many jars.
