Now the cat's out of the bag. My friends and family are getting homemade hot chocolate mixes this year! Because of holiday travel schedules I had to get some of them done pretty early so I might as well post the pictures now.
My idea started this year when I saw how many baby food jars started piling up in our recycling bin. I wanted to repurpose some of them and I knew I could come up with some kind of mix. I layered hot chocolate mix on the bottom, milk chocolate shavings in the middle (using a vegetable peeler makes this a piece of cake!), and marshmallows on top.
After I got the jars all cleaned and dried, I covered the lids with a few layers using my circle and scalloped circle punches. I printed out the labels on my favorite recycled paper from Neenah, and adhered with double sided tape. And to finish them off I cut out circles of festive Christmas fabric and tied it off with green twine from The Twinery.
