I am in search of a glass jar lid. The kind that fits on an old Atlas canning jar with the wire bale that goes over it, it is kind of domed. I would be willing to barter for one or buy it if anyone has one. I already have the jar but need the glass lid.
Hi Lorie, I have several different style glass lids for atlas. Could you send me a picture of your jar? Then I can tell you if I have the right lid. . which I would be more than happy to send you!
I will take a picture of one of mine and send it or post it. I am also looking for one, or two. If you have an extra, I could send you a new crocheted dish cloth for it.
I was just going to take the picture and looked through my jars and I don't need a top like that after all but one to fit a short Kerr -economy with a wide mouth and not the glass with the bale. I think it had a metal lid with a metal clamp that snapped down on both sides. I will head to photo bucket and then post here.
The tall one is the kind of lid I think I need if anyone has one. And the short guy is the jar. Sorry for bargering in here like a bear, I think I am too tired to be posting. Just ignore me.
Lorie, Yes, I have your lid!! Email me your address so I can get it into the mail . . . as soon as the postoffice is open. Our state has 400,000 homes and businesses without power due to the huge storm. At least I can have your package ready to go!
Hi Karen, I do not have that style yet. . . I will check with one of my friends, she may have one. . not sure though. If I find one I will post here for you!
Just checking in, we have had a trying time here and now the sun is shining and it is warming up!!! Lorie, your jar lid will be in the mail on monday so you can be watching for your farmgirl mail the middle of next week!
Karen, so far I have not come up with that style lid. . . spring is coming which means yardsales. . . so I may still find you one!
Joanna I got my package yesterday and the lid fit perfect. I was so surprised to get the embroidered cloth. I love it! Thank you so much and be on the look out for your Farmgirl mail.
