If you’re looking for the perfect holiday treat for a friend or loved one that will delight the senses this festive season, look no further than these quick and easy mason jar Christmas gifts. We’ve pulled together 5 of our favorite ideas, so pop on some Christmas tunes, grab a helper or two, and start creating gifts that will undoubtedly bring some holiday cheer. 

Sweet cinnamon kettle corn, simmering stovetop spices, warm hot chocolate… the smells and sounds of these treats elicit a sense of warmth—the very essence of holiday coziness! Wouldn’t it be great if you could package up that warmth and coziness in a jar and give it to a friend? Well, with these easy DIYs, you can!

These Christmas gifts in a jar are great to make ahead and have on hand in case you think of a friend who needs a gift at the last minute (or if you unexpectedly receive a gift from someone and want to give one in return!). Pop on some Christmas tunes and spend an afternoon with your family whipping up these gifts. 

All you have to do is simply add the dry ingredients to a decorative jar, then make tags to include the instructions below and any additional ingredients for the recipient to add.

Consider making a few extra for you and your family to revel in the holiday cheer with some tasty treats!
