Looking for a gift for your favorite fashionista or foodie? Or how about both? Two things that appeal to our inner Marie Antoinette are decadent sweet treats and fashionable accessories. Combine these two loves together into a can’t miss gift: a versatile decorative designer-inspired decorative ceramic treat jar set from David’s Cookies, shaped like – you guessed it – designer handbags!
The David’s Cookies Navy Handbag Ceramic Decorative Jar Set
ABOUT THIS SET
The set comes with a full-size jar shaped like a handbag and matching treat size jar, shaped like a small bag. This Designer-inspired decorative treat jar set, of course, works as the quintessential cookie jar, or it can be used to hold your favorite sweet treats in the kitchen or office or for makeup storage on a dresser, vanity or desk. What fashionista wouldn’t love to get this as a gift?
Two-piece decorative jar set is inspired by designer handbag styles
CONSTRUCTION
The jar set is well made, the ceramic is fully glazed and hand-painted. There are no rough edges, cracks or crazes, or areas that missed glazing or paint as can be seen on some decorative ceramics.
This set is also notable for the attention to detail, as seen especially within the design and gold embellishments, the raised faux grommets, the detailing on the straps and other designer handbag highlights.

NOTE: Wash the ceramics carefully by hand, as decorative glazed ceramics are not recommended for dishwashers or microwaves.

PACKAGING
The outer box is thick and sturdy and bears the “David’s Cookies” logo. The gift set is very well packaged inside with multiple layers styrofoam fittings and individual plastic overwraps for keeping each piece separately contained to ensure safety in transit or if kept packed in storage. The set is highly suitable for gift giving. I like when a company takes this much effort to ensure an item is well packed when giving a gift because I know it will stay safe in transit if I mail it to someone.

USES
Decorative as well as functional display pieces, they also serve to organize a vanity or dresser. The full-size jar can hold food-based treats like cookies or wrapped candies, or be used on a vanity table to hold hair accessories or even makeup. The treat size jar is perfect for small hard candies or loose bobby pins, safety pins, cotton balls or swabs or even jewelry. It is also a good spot for a nail polish collection.
Use the large jar for cookies
Hold candy. The large jar currently contains 27 fun size KitKats, Heath Bars and Reeses Peanut Cups, with some room to spare
The set could be displayed in a dressing room, powder room, bedroom, or even as decor in a “lady boss” office. I like the idea of using these as a treat jar in an office setting because while they are large enough to be generous, they don’t store enough cookies or treats to mindlessly polish off excessive amounts of sweets while working on a project. On a desk, the large jar is useful to discretely store energy bars so you don’t over-indulge on vending machine junk food.
Keep power or energy bars at your desk if you can’t get away from work and need a quick energy boost
In the little treat jar, keep cough drops at the ready near a home or office phone or bedside table
MY EXPERIENCE
Perfectly in place on my vanity table amongst my girlie-girl trinkets, in the large jar, I keep my hair accessories such as clips, sticks, ribbons and hair jewelry for hair-on-the-go days for quick access so I don’t have to go rummaging for a quick-hairdo accessory when I am in a rush.
The large jar holds my go-t0 hair accessories for quick hairstyles all in one place: ponytail scarves, hair clips, hair jewelry, ribbons, hair sticks, etc.
In the smaller jar, I hold candy, band-aids, cotton balls or safety pins but it could also hold bobby pins. The lid top fits squarely and the product does not display excess wear from use.

And my favorite treat jar use, to hold chocolate truffles!

Yum!!
CONCLUSION
The David’s Cookies Navy Handbag Ceramic Decorative Jars Set is a delightful gift for fashionistas with countless uses for both display and storage purposes, keep dressers and vanities organized with attractive and versatile pieces that are sure to draw compliments and a smile!
