Basil Salt Gift Jars

Basil Salt Gifts

This is another pin there - done that project. It's no secret that I'm an avid Pinterest fan or that I usually have an over-abundance of basil. I spotted the idea for basil salt on Home Is Where The Boat Is (one of my favorite blogs).
I made the basil salt and packaged it in Glass Snap Top Wedding Favor Jars that I found at Michaels. I made the labels, printed them and attached them with double-sided tape (another tip I picked up from a Pinterest project). I found the salt spoons on ebay. Such a quick, easy, nice little gift!

Pinspirations
It's no secret - I LOVE Pinterest! I've found fabulous project ideas, great household cleaning and organization tips and scrumptious recipes, not to mention some beneficial workout and fitness tips. I've even started a new board PinThere - Done That to show the projects I've made from the Pinspirations I've gotten, including these.
