  1. Well, I got back from Hobby lobby and have to say I wasn't impressed. The jars with lids had the plastic flange thingy looking all cockeyed (turned up here, and down there (very unappealing looking). I think they make the flanges too long. And the glass wasn't that great looking on a lot of them. Then, several also said "Made in China" right on the bottoms in glass lettering. The Cracker Jars by AH looked fine though, and so did the Montana Jars there (They had the black or was it dark brown lids). 

  2. Hey guys, I was checking out glass jars all around on the web, and I found some good deals. This week at Hobbylobby.com, they have 50% off of Glass Decor. That includes all their glass jars, of which they have many, many varieties. They have the 64 oz Cracker Jar going for $5.00, and the 32 oz at $4.50.  I don't know what their shipping is like, but I plan to stop at the local store. Next, you should check out Kmart.com. They have the Montana Jar with red lids in 3 sizes. The smallest one (48 ozs) is only 10.99 AND shipping is free over $35. HTH

  3. Hi MLG,

    I do like the vineyards one better, but if you wanted to improve it, I'd say make the border a different color (maybe purple?). And there isn't enough contrast for the words "Sundrenched Vineyards". Perhaps if you lightened up the brown, or used white with a purple border around it? I don't know, you'd have to play around. I know label designing can take up so much time! 

     

    Best of luck

  4. A few more websites to check out:

     

    www.parcpackaging.com

    www.bagsandbowsonline.com

     

    for mailer boxes: 

    interplas.com (these folks also have quite a selection of polypropylene bags)

     

    For some cute favor boxes that are as big as 3" X 4" check out efavormart.com

     

    And last but not least, I'd check out aliexpress.com.You can spend a lot of time on there, and find some amazing deals. I have bought from them and been pleased. I haven't searched exhaustively for boxes, but I've found a couple in the 3-4" size. Most are smaller.

    A site that looks similar is dhgate.com
