Each November, I seem to count my blessings a little more often. This year I decided to create a little Thankfulness Jar to collect daily notes of gratitude.
This is a simple little project. Attach a strip of burlap to the jar with hot glue (that way it'll peel off later if necessary). Add a strip of cotton - ruffled if you like. And then top with a piece of ribbon. Pretty, simple and ready to fill :)
