Thanks to One Pretty Thing I found a really cute idea for some Christmas happy's for friends. I have always heard the saying that "friends are the spice of life", and I believe that. When I saw the really cute spice rub gift idea I new that it would be a simple and usable gift.
One the website it was in a jar with a twist top, but I decided put my own spin on it. I found little glass jars that were the perfect size and I saw it as the perfect opportunity to use some of my chalkboard paint. I started with the glass jars and painted a little square on the front that could be used to label what was inside.
Once the rub has been used the jar can be washed and labeled to match the new contents
I wrapped them up in some festive tissue paper, stamped a little card, and tied them up with a fresh piece of chalk!
