Description:

Dacia came up with this one.... Color her world whimsey jar. The jar should be filled with at least one item of doll size in each color.... RED ORANGE YELLOW GREEN BLUE PURPLE,PINK BLACK and WHITE It could be store bought or homemade or a mix of both would probably be the most fun. They do not have to be big things like say, a belt. some hair ribbons, doll size jewelry, mini food, shoes, perhaps a t-shirt...a pair of socks, a doll size book or greeting card. YOU MUST HAVE AT LEAST ONE OUTFIT IN THE JAR other then socks. (I would recommend a skirt, shirt, socks, dress etc, think fun and send what you would like to receive!) remember to fill your jar as much as possible! Make it a fun one!

Seems the typical whimsy jar is a 16 ounce mason jar, but I think any jar around that size should be fine. It would probably be less to ship a plastic jar, and I love to recycle so a plastic Mayo Jar would do great.

Senders Choice of what to put in but please send your partner only items you would love to receive! We all have such unique things we make. Send some colorful love!

Ok hmmmmmmm My Jar is pretty much full and I have not started my outfit yet.would a bathing suit count as an outfit or should I buy a bigger jar???

Karenmomofthree 02/15/2012 #

bathing suit counts! LOL I think my jar needs a space bag to get more items in, what fun!

Dacia 02/16/2012 #

I managed an outfit lol.... I think its gonna all fit! The jar thing is so much fun. I gave the things in my jar a theme. Everything in my jar is finished, I just need to decorate my jar.

I'm new to this group and have a question. Does every item need to be sewn or can some be knitted or crocheted? I've looked all over my house at least twice for a 16 oz jar. I looked in the pantry, in all the cubbards, and even where I stash empty/used containers. I finally found a 16 oz pickle relish jar in the refrigerator. Now who would have thought to look there? LOL It's soooo small. I'll have no trouble filling it to the brim and then some. LOL

jnealy , some of my items are sewn some are more like craft projects, some are store bought. This really can be any random sort of things as long as you meet all the requirements.... Have all the colors in the jar, at least one outfit... My Jar is stuffed to the brim and I have something that is not going to fit but goes with my stuff so I am going to tie it to the jar or something. I hope that helps.
