Hi Friends!!!
Remember yesterday’s glittery mason jar?! Here is what it turned into…a valentine mason jar gift for B’s teacher!
I fell in love with this saying I found off of Pinterest. Keeping the heart theme I placed Dove heart shaped chocolate in the jar.
See the glitter?!? I really love how that Mod Podge Extreme Glitter add a little something extra to this gift. I added some jute and a little tag that says Happy Valentine’s Day.
I printed the label out on card stock. I then added just a touch of Elmer’s Fine Line craft glue around the edge of the jar. I placed the printable on my lid and set aside for it to dry. You can also use hot glue. Just a little around the edge of the jar lid will go a long way. Trim off any excess paper. Once dry, add your candy and close up the jar!

Update 2015: I have added another version of this jar that reads “It takes a big heart to care for little people”. You can download the caregiver version here:
** In this printable I included 3 wide mouth jar prints and 1 regular mouth print. Mason jar lids come in 2 sizes wide and regular. So it does not matter what size jar you will use this printable will work for both.
For my project I used a 16 oz. Wide Mouth jar like this one Jarden Home Brands 4Pk 16Oz Platinum Jars 1440061180 Canning Jars
If you want something smaller I would suggest this 8 oz wide mouth version: Jarden Home Brands 4Pk 8Oz Platinum Jar 1440061162 Canning Jars

The font I used for this printable is Cupid De Locke. It was featured in my favorite valentine font round up.
I hope B’s teacher loves her gift!! Are you making anything for your kid’s teacher for valentine’s day? Leave a link below! I would love to see it!
I had a little help eating some of the candies after the shoot. He was swiping chocolate the entire time I was taking pictures.
Have a great weekend!

Such a nice gift. I love the saying too.
Thanks Glenna!
Love this idea! Did you use s 4oz or 8oz mason jar? Thanks for posting the printables too 🙂 Can’t wait to start crafting!
I actually used the 16 oz wide mouth jar. In the printable I included sizes for both wide mouth and regular mouth ball jars. There are 3 versions of the wide mouth and 1 for the regular mouth. I updated the post to show the exact jar I used! Thanks! 🙂
This is so cute! Thank you for the free printable.
Thanks Crystal!
Hi! Did you use 4 oz or 8 oz mason jars for this? Just wondering because it doesn’t say the measurements for the printable lid covers. Thanks!! 🙂

Great, thanks so much!
love it! printing them out tonight for my son’s teacher! thanks so much for the printable. <3
What a lovely gift to give to a teacher this week!
What a sweet idea! I think I just found the perfect little teacher gift! I need to make 5 in 2 days. Totally doable! Thanks for the printables!
Thanks so much for the great idea! Just make these for my daughters’ teachers. They are adorable!
Yay! So glad to hear! 😀
hi, please email me back at heatherm907@yahoo.com
I am wanting to make these tonight. #1: what type of glue did you use to glue the paper lid covers on with? and question #2: did you use regular printer paper or card stock?!
thanks,
Heather
Thank you for the printable. Even though I didn’t use the glitter idea, I did use the idea and can top. 🙂
Awe:) Glad you liked it and could use it!! 🙂
I watched days of our lives from 2nd grade to 12th grade with my grandma…you’re not alone! haha, I just think its hilarious, because i dont watch it anymore, but i can turn it on and know exactly whats going on…something is so wrong about that..haha.
LOVED this idea! I made 12 of them for almost everyone at my children’s school. Thank you so much for helping to make me look so good! 😉
Oh! That is so good to hear!! 12!! Oh my! You were a busy lady:)
Any chance you could make a similar label that could be used for a gift for a caregiver or school nurse? Maybe “It takes a big heart to care for little people” or something? My Little has a condition that requires us to have a close working relationship with her school nurse. Would love to make this for her!!
Hi Stacey! I am so sorry this is a bit late but I did make a new version of the jar for you. I went ahead and updated it in the original post. There is a link that reads Valentine for care givers. 🙂
YAY! Thank you SO much! 🙂
I don’t know why but I can’t figure out how to print these. Where is the download link?
Silly Me! I found it. It’s clear as day. *shaking head* Thank You!
Oh good!!! I am glad you found it Sara!! 🙂
Hi! If you used the 16 oz wide mouth jars, how many dove hearts fit in there? I have to make 5 of these and I don’t want to go broke on candy!!! I may buy the 8 oz wide mouth jars to cut my cost down! Such a cute idea! Thanks for the free printable!!!!! Much appreciated!!!
Hmmm. I think it was about half the bag with the dove hearts. You could also mix some Hersey kisses or other wrapped candy to the mix to keep costs down. I know that the dove chocolates tend to be on the pricey side but they are soooo good 🙂
Hey Tori…I love this idea, so cute. I bought all the items to make my jars; however, I need 8 of the small 8oz jar lid printables. I know that you provide a printable with it on there, but I was wondering if you could make a printable with just that size (the small one), along with a one with just the gift tags?!?!?!?! I hope you are able to help with this!!!
Katie
Hahaha. That is my same dilema. I read through all the comments hoping this had been addressed. I tried to play around with it on my computer, but it’s a PDF :-/.
No problem – the files have been updated by size.
Hi,
I just made all the glittery jars and filled them but the link to the teacher ones isn’t printing right for me. It could be just me but I have tried it several times and it prints half a circle and two tags. Help please! I am trying to print just the small jar lids. Thank you for such a cute idea!
Hi Kate,
Sorry it wasn’t printing right! I just uploaded a new file. It should work!!
Hi Kate – I updated the files by size!
Thank you for the quick reply. It works now! So cute!!
Awesome! Its actually awesome piece of writing, I have got much clear idea about
from this paragraph.
Thanks so much for the printables! When I first found this I thought I’d have to re-create the design so this saved me so much time. I put peanut valentines m&ms in my jars instead of the Dove chocolates.
Amazing things here. I am very satisfied to peer your article.
Thanks so much and I’m having a look forward to contact
you. Will you please drop me a e-mail?
These are so adorable! Thank you so much for sharing the idea and printables. I just printed them out and they are going to be so cute!
Thank you so much!! You just helped me out a ton. I love these… thanks for sharing (:
