Summer in a Jar


One of my all time favorite projects was my day in a jar I posted about here.  That jar makes me happy :)


My "day in a jar" collection  has not grown until two days ago.  I was gathing up some dried flowers I had laying around here and there from this summer.  Hanging some, putting some in cans, etc. and realized how pretty some would look in a jar. 


This summer wasn't the summer I had hoped it would be in so many ways, but it was the summer God blessed in so many ways.


So, in my jar are little reminders of this summer.  A couple of flowers from my daughter's wedding, some my little gals picked, some from my garden, with a little scrap of vintage fabric tied on in a bow.


All representing so much more to me than would appear to anyone else.

  5. What a beautiful idea. Extra special to you but I think anyone would find a memory there . . . I had daisies at my wedding.
