Hello Thirty Handmade Days readers! I am so excited to be sharing this mason jar gift idea with you today. I have always been a huge mason jar fan… even before the whole Mason Jar phase began. Even though some people might think giving gifts in Mason Jars is an overused idea, I love the simplicity of putting gifts in Mason Jars.

Presenting the Mummy Mason Jar. Even if you may think Mason Jars are overused, I’m almost positive you’ve never seen anything like this before. This mason jar is the perfect container to fill with some fall or Halloween goodies.

In my case, I filled the jar with some fall colored M&M’s. Personally, I’d be totally fine with just receiving a bag full of M&M’s, but this Mummy Mason Jar makes the gift a little more special.

Another great thing is that creating the mummy head on top of the Mason Jar is really simple and easy to make. In just a few steps you can have an adorable Fall/Halloween gift to give.
