I recently made a wild rose petal jam and pained a jar with a strip of blackboard paint and then chalked a label on to it. Thanks for sharing your ideas Matt.

I think every LA or designer needs to refresh their mind with all kinds of great design…music to food to details like graphics. And more food…

Fall hit Abq to El Paso and points east yesterday evening…ahhh!

The wax liquifies immediately on the boiling hot jar and makes writing much easier. The wax then melts off the jars in the dishwasher.
