Every summer I go to Wisconsin to a Quilt Retreat with my sisters for a long weekend. Although I have made a few quilts, I prefer to scrapbook while there! (There are usually 3 or 4 of us scrappers among the quilters!) Each year I take a little gift for my sisters and these journal jars are what I made for them last year. The jar contains journal prompts about their childhood, dating, married life, being a parent, and being a grandparent. Each day they are to take out one prompt and write in their journal. Eventually the books are to be handed down to their grandchildren, which they all 3 have now by the way! I enjoyed making the jars and journals for them and I think they all really liked them! (Now I just hope they are using them!)
I love the journal jars! They were beautiful. I would be anxious to know if they are using them...
