    Many are switching to glass containers from plastic containers, avoiding the chemicals that supposedly come with the latter. From lunchbox containers (aka baunans) to baby bottles, cheaper plastic is being replaced by a heavier contender. 

    One couple, Laura and Sebastian Belmar, thought it good as well to get their child glass baby bottles. They soon found, however, that the glass alternative was far more expensive than the plastics. Hence, they decided to create glass baby bottles of their own. Cheaper and nontoxic, they’re making theirs with mason jars.

    Mason jars have invaded every nook and cranny of our lives so much that even our babies might soon be getting into them. The Belmars have yet to sell their idea to the public but they are prepared to if they reach their $25,000 goal on Kickstarter. As of writing, they're already nearing $22,000 with 7 days left to go.

    Because the jars are temperature resistant, you can store milk inside them in the freezer with just the lid. When it’s feeding time, you can simply take one out, heat it up and screw on a nipple. If you’re on the go, the nipple can be placed upside down for storage inside the bottle and put right side up again for feeding.

    They will also offer an option to just buy the nipples, which they’ve especially designed to be used with any regular sized mason jar, and silicon sleeves for extra protection. 

    “The Mason Bottle’s nipple is designed to be anti-colic and anti-gas. Our ventilation design mimics the way our heart works. Milk flows smoothly with no air bubbles and no leaking,” says the page.
