    hi
    h2b has been in put of favour jars as we want to fill them up with olde style sweeties as some of you know. However, he is concerned that each size is far too tall and he says they will look funny on tables. He would like to know what size you think we will get away with. Thanks girls.

    Maybe the size of a jam jar?? I suppose it depends upon how many people you have sitting at the table as to whether it will look crowded. Good luck with it xx

    I agree the Ikea jars are perfect and would be great to store home made jams etc and other things in once the wedding is over so they won't go to waste. They do a few taller ones in the same range so you could always have a small medium and large jar on each table.

    i take it that is 2 quid a jar? i think they are probably a similar size to what we need. h2b said he will have a look online for us later :) so thanks for pointing him in the right direction.... hopefully :)

    The ones I posted are 2.03 for a pack of 4, with ribbon and sweets I think i'm at about 90p per favour jar.... (these are for my day time do, the rsvp's will ask for favourite sweets and that's what I'l fill them with as an extra treat) I'll also try and include a few favourites onto the sweet buffet table in the evening.

    details Height: 8 cm
    Volume: 15 cl

    I thought they were to big at first, but once they are ribboned and tagged I reckon they'll look pretty, plus they can stand on their sides to...
