half pint jars

[wolfscout]

I picked up a pack of 4 of those jars as well as a canning funnel for ease of emptying tobacco into it. I figued the wife wouldn't admire my idea of continuing to use her canning funnel. LOL. Might come in handy.

My wife just informed me that I can't use her canning funnel. Perhaps I need to buy one for myself.

Wives are like that. My ex didn't like me stoving tobacco in "her" oven.

We, Rhonda and I, went to Walmart and picked up some more half-pint jars and a jar loader...

She had a neat idea.

Rhonda's idea of affixing the tobacco labels to the lowrider half-pint jars. showing top.

Rhonda's idea of affixing the tobacco labels to the lowrider half-pint jars. showing side.

The labels are laid over the lid... and pressed to where they show best.

then you remove them and add double sided tape.

Re-position the label.. press and smooth....

Apply the ring.

Done.

Simple.

Rhonda's idea came from her scrapbooking hobby ==== Sometimes us fellas need to pay attention. :twisted:

Picked up eight jars for about a buck a piece at the local wally world . Also found some old bail top jars in the junk shops for a buck a piece . I use those little Avery labels and put the date on them .

I buy a lot of my tobaccos in bulk, so like Wolfscout, I make labels that fit on the lids.

This really helps with identification because I use the Mason jar box for storage

and I don't have to lift all the jars to read the contents.

I have some bulk tobacco ordered to try and make do till my GYO becomes ready. I like the mason jars for use and label with their labels when possible. I also like your idea of putting dates on the labels. will have to add that to mine too.

Cortezattic,...Those are incredible labels! What a great idea!
I've been using Microsoft Word to make a strip label for the lid and one for the side of the jar,....but no where near as nice as those you're making.
Bravo! :clap:

 

[pappy]

Cortezattic: what are you using to make those labels? Is there a template or are they commercial labels?

 

[unclearthur]

I have been just sticking write on tape to the lids. But I need to get busy and do proper labels.
