Our Mason Jar Box Top Collection Jar is a perfect DIY way to collect box tops to save for your child's school.

Our Mason Jar Box Top Collection Jar is a perfect DIY way to collect box tops to save for your child's school.

I recently bought a 12 pack of mason jars for around $8 after a coupon. I wanted to make a few small projects for around the house, and after my projects I still had about 6 leftover jars. I had a sandwich bag filled with box tops that we have been collecting over the summer and thought that a little collection jar would be perfect! This mason jar looks perfect sitting on our windowsill and makes collecting box tops easy. My son can easily bring the jar into school to empty and just take it home after, that way we can save a ton of sandwich bags, too.
