FREAKY CRAP IN JARS THAT MAKE PERFECT GIFTS


If anyone cares, the jar (with a screw-on lid) was invented by John Landis way back in 1858. 

If anyone further cares I bought a House of Blues mason jar when I was in Chicago.
It's now gathering dust. In the jar’s defense it didn’t contain anything to add to its presentation. The following jars won’t have that issue. In fact, I'll take it one step further and guarantee that ANYONE on your holiday list will absolutely cherish these jar gems for years to come.


- 5 ½” tall
- Never been opened




- Accurate detailing
- Plastic non-slip lid




- Made of wool fleece
- Jar has round design





- 14 oz. jar (family size)
- Feet stored in vinegar

  6. I have to say, your blog is totally addicting. I've been anxiously awaiting a new post.
    My only relevant comment to this jar post is: how freaking long does it take you to find this stuff?

  10. OK, so I totally have a story about jars. Every year at the in-laws (yeah, their whack) we do a theme and draw names for gifts. In 99 the gift had to fit in a jar, I was recovering from a surgery gone bad so they drew my name and jar for me. I got a jar the size of a golf tee. In law's are whack. That is all. Did you have a good Thanksgiving and did you do Black Friday?

  16. the ultimate in "freaky crap in a jar" is Philadelphia's Mutter Museum. They've got fetuses and animals and all sorts of organs and body parts. Just don't go right before or right after eating....

  20. Why would you put a zombie head in a jar? Do you really need to preserve the undead?

  21. Hmm, I think I'll send my sister-in-law's mom the pig's feet for Xmas. She'll never make me worship Jesus again. Thanks for the perfect gift idea. xo

    Thank you....thank you...

  24. Your post ideas just crack me up. I'm totally cracked. I'm seeping blood. I need to remember this before coming to your blog. Another thing- why is the inventor of the jars not John Ball? Why did a Mr. Ball get his name on the jar and Mr. Landis get shoved aside? Makes no sense.

  25. I can appreciate everything on that list except the pigs feet. Who seriously eats those?!
