Then the light bulb went off, how about dressing up a glass container with a sticker! I mean seriously, how much easier could that get! Not to mention that the longest part of the process was deciding on what stickers to buy!
This was what I ended up buying:

Here are links for these photos going clockwise.
Making Memories Puffy Alpha Stickers in Pink
American Crafts Remarks Journaling Stickers - Veggies
Mini Milk Glass Jar with Flip Lid, which by the way was only $1.49
I also bought some teal sheer ribbon and some Chocolate Hershey's Eggs at the supermarket.
This was the end result, and it truly took 5 minutes!!! Plus the journaling tags were so freakin' adorable and that took time to pick one that I wanted to put on my milk jar.
Here is a close up with the puffy stickers. They are pretty with their mini polka dots and their high sheen :)
Lastly, I just want to add that not only was this a really quick gift idea, it was also affordable. You can easily find stickers on sale at your hobby store, or even the dollar store. Use some ribbon or twine you have on hand even. Try and buy candies that are on sale due to the season, example: Easter Candy, Halloween Candy, Christmas Candy etc. This is perfect as an add on to a gift. A little handmade gift always makes anything a little more special, because it's from the heart ;)

I'm so happy to inspire you ladies for sure! It can be done so cheaply too! Oh and Sumi, I am sure you could recreate this with even some mason jars! If the stickers don't stick, perhaps you can use some pretty ribbon and shipping tags?
