The "second lives" of Bonne Maman jars

For the past two years, Isa Edwards' aunt has sent her a Bonne Maman Advent calendar, which features 24 little once-ounce jars of the company's preserves in flavors like Mirabelle plum, yuzu orange and strawberry with star anise. Edwards' aunt sent them to her mother and grandmother, as well — which she eventually inherited. "I've accumulated quite a few of the mini jars," Edwards says.

Initially, she simply gave them to her partner "for weed storage," but the greater aesthetic potential of these micro-jars with their recognizable, stylish gingham lids wasn't lost on Edwards, who runs the Etsy shop Dewdrop Doobie, which specializes in fashion and "accessories for lazy smokers and tree huggers."
