Reasons Why I Love You Jar
Reasons printed as slips to fold into a jar, plus a round label for the lid with their name. Edit every reason before you print.
Quick answer
A reasons why I love you jar is a jar of folded paper slips, each with one reason you love someone, opened one at a time. This maker writes the reasons for you to edit and prints them as cut-out slips with a lid label.
How it works
- 1Type their name and yours, and pick how many reasons.
- 2Edit or shuffle the reasons.
- 3Print the slips, cut, fold and fill the jar.
How to make the jar
- Print the slips on plain paper. Colored or kraft paper looks lovely too.
- Cut along the dotted lines. A paper trimmer makes 100 slips quick.
- Fold or roll each slip. Tie rolls with thin string for a scroll look.
- Stick the round label on the lid and add a ribbon around the neck.
- Add a note on top: "Open one whenever you need a reason."
Ideas to make it special
Hide a few slips with plans instead of reasons, like a dinner date or a movie night. Add a handful of blank slips so they can add reasons for you too.
