This project was inspired by this tutorial: http://www.meandmydiy.com/2012/12/quick-bread-in-a-bottle-revisited.html

She has better photos :)

I used a small funnel to help me get everything neatly in the jar.

Using the end of a large spoon or kitchen utensil gently but firmly pack down ingredients as you add them.   

The photo below is after only the last 1/3 of the four had been added. I panicked a little BUT rest assured you CAN get it all in. Pack it with your kitchen tool. 

When you put the last flour in it is helpful to have a spatula around to clean the 

glass edges and to keep it neat. Continue to add the chocolate chips and the walnuts. You CAN fit it all I promise! 

K this looks funny but let me tell you these ingredients couldn't get any tighter. I used a 1/2 cup measuring cup that fit just inside the jar and a small paint can to pack it all in. 

Yes these walnuts will fit. I will make them fit... Back to the measuring cup and paint can. 

See told you it would all fit :) Place the jar seal on the top. Cut your burlap to a square round that will over lap the edges.   

Place burlap over the seal and twist jar ring on. 

Color you labels for a fun touch. 

Cut out and hole punch

Take a glue stick and glue label to jar. Its okay to go heavy on the glue stick ;)

Back too.

Thread twin through label and wrap around the jar ring TWICE then bow, 

DONE!!!
