Good for you! Every time I tell someone I am saving little jar for baby food they tell me why dont you just use the plastic ones. I give the same response, because its better for my baby. I also get no response. Good for you!

It’s a pleasure reading your articles.

The contents of my kitchen cabinets are slowly being transferred from their original packaging to jars. It really does give you that homestead-y, Little House on the Prairie feel. :)

For those interested, I use glass Pyrex bowls for freezer storage (you can bake in them as well).

I have always been a great saver of jars. Back when I was single I had some people help me to move from my student-days apartment into a rental house closer to my place of employment. Paper bags were still used in grocery stores at the time, and I saved those too. My helpers made a lot of fun of my Bags of Bottles and my Boxes of Bags. *laugh*

The largest I have is one gallon, but those are harder to come by. I’d say look online.

What is the largest size you have? I have 1/2 gallon, but I’d love to get gallon ones – I’m not sure where to find them.

I found this blog threw the one you posted about big jars and little bananas. I love your ideas! I have started redoing my kitchen to add all my jars. I would love to can and do all that fun stuff this summer but my husband is in the army and we are moving to who knows where at this point in a few short years. But I can’t wait for farmers markets to open this summer!

I also love jars, I don’t use them quite as much as you, but my dad used to collect bottles and jars and I kinda get that from him. I love auctions for finding the older more unique ones, they had some very neat jars back in the day, unlike now they are all the same.
