Hi Nancy! I can give you a use for the small ones (not sure of the Jam jar
size). If you have a garage with a work bench, aint it a pain to find a
neat way to store all them little nails and such? Ours has an overhead
shelf. We nailed the lids of baby jars up there neatly, fill with them
'little bits' and screw them to the lids. Now we can easily see what we
need yet its neatly out of the way.
Since I hate waste and filling landfill uselessly, I reuse any suitable
sized jar instead of purchasing plastic keepers. Jars of soup go to
neighbors in them, stuff like that.
