half-gallon jars...

The way to this girl's heart?  White roses, anything grey, anything old and rusticated, and canning jars.  A particular favorite of mine is the half-gallon jar.  So useful, so perfectly pretty AND practical!

The pull out drawers in my pantry are filled with these beauties.  They are filled with staples like basmati rice, tri-color quinoa, lots of beans (anasazi beans are pictured here), and more...

A jar sits outside in the sun, brewing refreshing tea for these warmer days...

And those elegant and voluptuous peonies in my garden?  They are perfectly dressed in a half-gallon canning jar...

Live simply.  Love well.  In all things, give thanks... maybe even tuck little notes of gratitude into a half-gallon jar!

  1. I have some of those and really like them too. Also those big pickle or olive jars when I can get them! The peonies in the jar do look lovely! Nancy
