This year, I thought I'd make some candy jars and fill them with Starburst candies. :) I also thought I'd create enough for my teammates as well as a special friend. :)
Here are the jars (I created seven of them and it took me mere minutes, thanks to the magic of MASS PRODUCTION ;) )
And since my buddy/teammate Greg doesn't strike me a guy who would like some fruity jar on his desk, I figured I would pay homage to his native state of Michigan. :)
Our custodian probably won't like fruity decoration either, and since I'm not sure what are his interests, he'll just be getting a plain jar brimmed with the candies. :)
Thanks for looking and/or commenting!

Love your fruit jars. Very colorful. This is a great idea. I think it is very thoughtful of you to tailor each jar to the recipient. What kind of jars are those?
Ted you are so thoughtful to think of the office staff! They so often get forgotten! These are adorable little gifts! I may have to "borrow" your idea! TFS!

Cute jars! I especially love the Detroit Tigers one, as a die hard fan myself! And by die hard fan, what I mean is, I have no idea who plays for them, what their record for the year is, or even who the coach is anymore, but they are my home team, so I love 'em! :D
Those are so (can I say cute to a guy) wonderful. I'm sure your co workers will appreciate them. How nice that you are spending part of your summer making presents and treats for your friends at work. I'm sure those jars will be empty in no time.
Ted, you just have the best ideas for making people feel special! I love these and I betcha they will be really happy that you were thinking of them! You rock!
ooh yummy, I'd love a jar like that for my desk, but I know the kiddies would have their grubby little hands in it all day long (I work in a guidance office)! lol great gift idea though, love that strawberry!
Hi Ted! These are such thoughtful gifts! It's so great that you're interested in this craft! And you're making me want the Fruit Fusion : Melon ? set! Grrr....
These are so cute, Ted, and it's very thoughtful how you have personalized them. I'm sure they will all love them! Now, I'm off to see if I can find any Starbursts in the house because I have a sudden craving for them, lol. :)
These are so great Ted!! I love the strawberry! You are always so thoughtful and caring! I'm sure the staff at your school loves seeing you coming! :)
I'm sure your fellow teachers just love you. You are such a thoughtful guy. These are very cute and a great idea. I always think "cans", but glass jars are wonderful too! Great stuff. Best, Curt
This is the stuff. Great idea, Ted. I'm thinking I'll do a CASE for the girls in my office.
