Birthday Quote Jar
My bff is turning 50 very soon.
And for the record…she is older than me.
In honor of the occasion, her dear friends and family are planning a super cool celebration. I will share those details with you later. I will tell you this…it involves travel.
One of the things we are doing is a Birthday Quote Jar. Or maybe I should say… it turned into a “things you should know” jar.
Either way, for a “milestone” birthday, it is a great idea, brought to me by my partner in crime sister-in-law.
She also found some hilarious quotes and very important “things” one should know. These are really funny and helpful…you know…for older people, like my dear friend.
I found this cute jar at Dollar General. Then I printed “Things You Should Know By The Time You Turn 50”, on parchment paper, and cut to fit inside the jar.
I also printed the quotes my sister-in-law found, and placed each quote in the jar.
To add a little more fun, we made up some of our own “things you should know”, and put them in the jar also. heehee 😉
Then I just topped it off with a piece of jute.

It is great that you are going to so much trouble to make your friend feel so loved and so special on her milestone birthday. Very interested to know where you are headed for the celebration. Love the idea of that jar – I might need to borrow it!

What a neat idea! She'll love it.
(By the way, when I read your post the first time, I thought it read "I topped it off with a piece of glue". Had to go back and read that line again!)
Have a good day!
