Today I’ve got another Christmas Mason Jar Craft Idea for you, a Snowman Mason Jar. I love crafting with Mason Jars, there are so many possibilities of cute things to fill them with. For more ideas see my Mason Jar Sewing Kit and Mason Jar Santa Gifts. (this post contains affiliate links)
This gift is very easy to make and I’ve even included a printable for you! Just fill the mason jar with your favorite white candy (or white wrapped candy) and attach the tag and embellishments.
I chose to fill my jar with white chocolate pretzels, as I’m totally unable to resist those buggers… something about the salty sweet combo gets me every time!
Supply List:
(you can get them from Overstock)
2. Snowman Tag:
Due to the popularity of the tags last Christmas I am simplifying the process for you to download ALL of my Christmas Mason Jar tags.
The Ultimate Christmas Tag Bundle offers ALL of the Christmas tags (including the one for this craft) plus a bonus of 5 other tags that are not offered with any other project! (including Santa, Reindeer, Merry Christmas, Snowman etc). It’s only $1.99 and you do not need to subscribe to this site. It’s a one time purchase.
A link to download the file yourself will be sent to you immediately after you complete your purchase. This file includes versions of the tags formatted for BOTH card stock and pre-scored Avery Tags.
NOTE: AOL users, check your spam/junk folder for your email confirmation.
I’ve included 2 versions of the tags one for Avery 22802 Tags and one for plain cardstock.
3. Tags to print on. You can pick up the Avery 22802 Tags on Amazon, they are my absolute FAVORITE Christmas wrapping must have… tags that you don’t have to cut out!
5. Cardstock
6. Scrap of Polar Fleece
7. Bakers Twine
Then use some hot glue to glue 3 buttons to the front of the jar and tie a scrap of red fleece around the neck for a scarf.
Quick and Easy! For an extra added touch you could tie a gift card to the tag.

One of the cutest ideas I have seen this year … want to make several last minute gifts copying this BUT I am unable to open the printable tag … yikes! HELP!!!! ~Julie in Boise
Hi Julie!
I hope its not too late! (I’ve been away from the internet this Christmas), you need Adobe Acrobat to open the tags. You can download it for free on Adobe’s website.
now that is a “sweet” idea for a gift!
This is a great idea…to go along with snowman poop!
Oh,too bad Christmas is over. That is cute! I need to remember this for next year! I would put divinity inside…YUM!
oh excellent idea!
Thanks soooo much for sharing so many cute ideas. I just found your site and am looking forward to
making gifts for family and friends! I come from a large family and always need new ideas for birthdays, etc…, so thanks again!!
Oh, thank you so much for the kind words! I am so glad that you are enjoying the ideas!
I love this idea & I’m making them for Christmas gifts this year but I have a question about the jars. I can’t tell from the picture … are the jars you used smooth or do they have raised lettering on them? I thought it would be hard to glue the buttons on if the jars weren’t perfectly smooth (on at least one side) but I’m having trouble finding smooth ones. If you used smooth ones, where did you buy them? I need them to be a good price because I’ll be making 30+. Thanks!
The jars are smooth.. you can buy them on Amazon or at Walmart
Love this project! Thank you so much for the tutorial and free printables! I’m currently making them for members at church! They’ll love them!
I did have a difficult time with the labels though and just wanted to pass a quick tip to others if they’re having alignment issues :) I bought the Avery template labels that you used and downloaded the template from this post. I seriously printed about 6 sheets of horribly unaligned labels before I figured out what I was doing wrong! They were printing on the creases so parts of it were cut off! I was trying to print the labels on the side that has all of the Avery label info in the margins. Once I flipped it over and printed on the blank side, it aligned PERFECTLY! Just wanted to mention it in case anyone else was having issues! Haha!
Also, Make sure when you are printing from Adobe Acrobat that your page scaling is set to NONE. Otherwise Acrobat will resize the labels and they won’t fit on the sheets.
Hi Melissa,
I could only find the elf printable tag. Do you have the snowman gift tag?
Yes, it’s on the same page as the Elf tag
What’s up colleagues, how is the whole thing,
and what you want too say about this paragraph, in my view its
in fact awesome in supplort of me.
I love your ideas! I just shared your page on my blog I just started. https://laundryandwisdom.wordpress.com/2015/12/03/homemade-christmas/
Thank you for this idea! I love how my snowman jars turned out! I was only going to do 5 and then ended up doing 16 big jars as gifts! And I found some awesome ribbon at michaels craft store that was green felt with red stitching on edges that worked perfect for the scarf!
Love the snowman Mason jars filled with pretzels⛄️
Could you tell me how approximately many ounces/ pounds it will take to fill a one quart jar?
Thank you
I just made some of your snowmen jars – so cute! I added a top hat by cutting a donut out of black glitter paper (from Michael’s) and putting it under the lip, and also gluing black ribbon around the lid, as well as cutting out a circle to put under the lid. I wish I could post a pic!
