Movie Night Gift Basket Gifts in a Jar Ideas

How To Make a Movie Night Gift Basket

I love using Ball Canning jars during the holidays to make fun Gifts in a Jar for family and friends.

This year I am taking part in a Secret Santa Gift in A Jar swap.

I wanted to make my Secret Santa gift in a jar that anyone would enjoy receiving.

I decided to make a Movie Night Gift Basket filled with fun treats to enjoy during a night at home.

Everyone needs a little relaxation during the hectic holiday season.

What better way is there to enjoy a relaxing evening at home than to sit back and watch one of your favorite movies and munch on some freshly popped popcorn and movie theater candy?

I hope my Secret Santa partner enjoys receiving this Movie Night Gift In A Jar Gift Basket as much as I enjoyed making it.

Check out my Movie Night Gift Basket. 

 Then head to the bottom of the post to check out what cute Gift In a Jar my Secret Santa partner sent me.
