A Jar Full of Gratitude

November 8, 2012

What are you grateful for?  Get ready for Thanksgiving with a printable gratitude jar.  Simply print a label for your jar and fill it full of your family’s responses to a series of fun and unique gratitude prompts.  Want a creative and meaningful Thanksgiving activity?  Read through your family’s responses before or after Thanksgiving dinner.

Are you ready to create a year full of abundance?  Keep adding responses to the jar throughout the coming year.  Next Thanksgiving, you’ll have a full year of blessings to reflect on and be grateful for.

We’d love to hear the creative ways you, your friends, and family express gratitude.  Have an idea to share?  We’d love to hear it!

Enjoy,

the Paper Coterie

    Great concept and quick and easy too. Thank you.

    With family out of town and a husband working to make Thanksgiving special for his Seniors, our own Thanksgiving languished (marked only by a 12 hour power outage).

    In the face of the January Slump that comes after the High Joy Days of CHRISTmas, I am thinking of starting the month/year with your THANKS-GIVING idea. We have SO MUCH to be thankful for and the Great I AM to be thank-full to.

    A lovely way to get the right perspective …

    Thank you for making your print-out available.

    -by His grace alone,
    HveHope
