...hot cocoa anyone?...

So for Christmas, I hit up the grocery stores! 
Yep, that's right. 
Grocery. Store.

I decided to make hot cocoa and spiced tea in mason jars. 
It was my first time mixing both up but I found great recipe's!!  Check them out and make them yourself!

Brown patterned paper for the Hot Cocoa

Both had great reviews from my family and friends that received these! 

 

 I think the most fun was in the packaging of them.  Traditionally you  see them with pieces of cloth under the lid, however, I grabbed some scrapbook paper to stick on the top of the jars along with coordinating reciepe tags tied on with a little jute.  I think they came out perfect and well worth the time making them!!
