Hello,

Does anyone have any idea where I might get decorative canning lids for my
Strawberry and Peach Jam? I have come across them here and there every once
in a while and find them to be delightful looking. I like to use them on
the jam jars I give away as presents.

I have looked on a whole bunch of web sites and just can't find them and
then I thought of asking all you fine folks.

Thanking you in advance,

Joyce

Both Walmart and Kroger carry them here in SW Louisiana if you're
talking about the typical Ball fancy lids.

Yes, those are the lids I'm looking for but our Wal-Mart doesn't carry them
and we don't have a Kroger's. I'm try them both on line.

Thanks,

Joyce

Do try and call some hardware stores, prob. the little "country" ones. The
megahomestores haven't been carrying them in my neighborhood.

In Canada Bernardin sells them, so maybe go to the US companies that
Altrista ( or whoever it is now) owns. I think that website is
Homecanning.com

Heh! Just don't ask me anything important, Ellen. :-) I am a fount of
useless knowledge. In demand at Trivial Pursuit.
