Sorry if I am covering old ground here, does any one know where I can get some decent sized jars etc for a sweet buffet?
Want something a little funky to put them in really but obviously don't want them to cost the earth.

Morning, I have had a look on there but don't seem to coming up with much.
The Bay of E is blocked at work so I will have another look tonight. My wonderful daugter got up at 4am, so my brain is going into overload now that I'm at work and needing to function lol.

CommentAuthorjanetx71
try charity shops and get different size and shaped bowls vases and jars work out quite reasonably priced and can look really good xx
CommentAuthorKath2010
Thanks for the link's.
That's what I would like to do have all the jars/vases different. On the images I've seen it works really well.
I'm off work next week so I will have a good look around the shops you have mentioned. x

Ours were 'cookie' style jar from Tesco at £1.50 ... we have 9 that match and then going to get some tall martini glasses for a row behind these.
What is everyone doing for labels? We thought about doing luggage label shaped card and tying with ribbon round the neck of the jar. Would this look ok? x

as already mention, ikea. I was in there a couple of months back and they had some really good ones that didn't cost that much. But also thinking of collecting other types of jars from wherever I can. After looking at previous threads have decided it'll work out far cheaper doing it myself. There is also a fab thread on recipes as well if you want to search for it. I made some of them already 'just to test' them lol x
