make a M&M Survival Jar

There is a cure for everything ... and M&M's are the answer ... yes, candy ... Give this fun and loving gift to everyone you know. They will love you for it. I promise that a jar of M&M's with a cure for every ailment will be better received than those funky house shoes you wanted to buy them!! Merry Christmas or Happy Birthday, or Just Because.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Jar (you choose size)
  • Decorations
  • Paper for card
  • Love
  1. Step 1

    The first thing you need to do is make a list of people that you want to make the survival jar for.

  2. Step 2

    Now you want to secretly find out what their favorite type of M&M's are. Once you find out the kind they like, load up on them.

  3. Step 3

    Fill the jar with the M&M's.

  4. Step 4

    Decorate the jar in a way that will please your recipient :)

  5. Step 5

    Once you're all done filling and decorating, you'll want to make a card to attach to the jar that describes how M&M's can cure them.

  6. Step 6

    To temporarily calm your craving for chocolate, eat the BROWN one.
    At the first sign of hot flashes eat the RED one.
    Eat the ORANGE one to minimize depression.
    The GREEN one calms your frustrations, when you want to be left alone.
    If you feel a headache coming on, eat the YELLOW one.
    The BLUE one reduces bloating.
    If all symptoms occur at the same time, eat the WHOLE JAR!

Tips & Warnings
  • Make sure your recipient isn't allergic to nuts or chocolate for that matter
  • To save money but still get the effect, use a smaller jar.
