I’m afraid to get ones that don’t have gaskets that make them airtight because of this, but I noticed that you have sugar in one of yours. Do you find that your sugar gets dry at all? Is there a way to keep the air out of the sugar canisters? Thanks!

no, they don’t have a seal as in a rubber seal but they seem to create a pretty tight closure. I have not had any problems with my sugar hardening and it is very humid here in the south. I have used them for 2-3 years.

Do they still keep flour/sugar/cookies OK? I’m searching for these size / style jars but with a seal for me new kitchen.

I absolutely love them!! I have also put goodies in them and gave them out as gifts. Question, now that I have some space on my kitchen counters, I plan on storing my flour, sugar, etc. in them. Have you had any problems with freshness since they don’t seal completely?

I’ve seen the labels before, and actually saw some in Michael’s today, but didn’t get them. I figure if I want some I’ll make them…if I can. I didn’t have a coupon for them.

I like the fact that you can change the labels as your needs change. I was trying to figure out, from the pictures, whether they have some kind of rubber seal to make them airtight. Do they?

But I went on etsy and they had all sorts for sale. I bought one for $6 with shipping.
