Journal Jar



I made 5 of these journal jar's for Christmas gifts this year. I forgot to take pictures of them, so this is courtesy of my friend Jessi who received one!

What I did was type up a ton of journaling prompts/questions, printed them on fun colored paper, cut and folded them, and tossed them in a jar.

When they run out of something to blog about, they can take a prompt from the jar and then blog about it.

Or you could also give the jar with a journal and they can just paste the question in the journal and write their answer.

I made one for myself, but never finished it. I just have all my questions in the jar but not decorated.

Idea

I was reading "The Real Photography" blog that I have followed for a long time and seen the most awesome idea!

Click here to see it! {You have to scroll down about 3/4 of the way.} Displaying fabric in embroidery hoops. I'm thinking that I could do something similar to this to display the Flour Sack Dish towels that my grandma and Jason's grandma have embroidered. I will never use them and want to display them somehow. I'm thinking I could simply pin the backs together so the fabric doesn't drape. Best part is they are super cheap at Hobby Lobby and I love the look!!!
