we had the same idea for my april 2010 wedding. my family owns a blueberry patch, and my incredible mother made all of the jam this summer (over 200 jars). we had a couple of taste testings, and it seems to be a hit! just don't forget to keep your diabetic loved ones in mind and make several jars of sugar free jam :).

I was JUST no joke talking the logistics of this over with my mom yesterday! I was thinking about doing a spiced peach jam maybe :) The wedding isn't until next June though... so I'm not sure how the color will look after sitting for 9 months.. any ideas?

Oh wow! The jam look delicious and love the lovely simple packaging!

I love this delicious favour idea. What a great way to give some of yourself to your guests. Plus, this is something they will actually use.

I heart jam! My mom always makes like 5 batches of jam at the end of summer, I think we even have some blueberry stocked up!

Love, love, love this idea! Thank you for the cute idea. It looks simple enough that even a klutz in the kitchen, like me, could do it!

I am making jam for my welcome baskets! Glad to see so many people think it's a good idea. Lovely!

i really considered doing jam as a favor for our wedding last september but we had way too many people invited - the cost would have been crazy, not to mention the effort that goes into each one!

Courtney on Sep 2, 2009

yummy! I bought a jarring kit about 3 years ago maybe I will use it now. :)

Feanne on Sep 2, 2009

Hi! I'd love to see the blueberry jam recipe but the link (for "recipe cards") isn't working... anyway lovely lovely blueberry photos! :)

Chaucee on Sep 2, 2009

This looks absolutely delicious! I better snatch some fresh fruit before it all goes out!

mel barlow on Sep 2, 2009

ANd oh sooo yum! Ate all mine already from the stationary social ... The jars are perfect to re-use again for jam, candles or trinkets :)

A few weeks ago my fiance and I finished canning 240 jars of fig jam! 50 pounds of figs (from a tree in our yard) + 10 pounds of sugar = favors for all our guests. The best part by far was all the hours we spent chatting and dancing around the kitchen over bubbling fig goodness. A good friend is going to paint a picture of the fig tree - we'll set in on the table with all the jars. Thanks for posting such a great idea!

Bekka on Sep 2, 2009

I love this! What cute gifts these would make, and what a great way to capture a bit of summer in a jar! ^_^
