What will your jars do?

Pick a use and we'll suggest the accessories that usually make the biggest difference — plus the jar mouth size that tends to fit best.

Mason jar drink setup with straw

Sip-ready drink jars

A flip-cap or straw-hole lid plus a reusable glass or stainless straw turns any jar into a spill-resistant tumbler. Silicone sleeves add grip and protection.

Meal prep lids

Grab-and-go meal prep

Leak-resistant plastic storage lids and divider cups make overnight oats, salads and dressings easy. Wide mouth jars are easier to fill and eat from.

Pantry storage jars

Tidy pantry storage

Get the fit right

Regular mouth vs. wide mouth

The single most important thing to check before buying any accessory: which mouth size your jars use.

Regular mouth

Roughly 2.75" outer thread diameter. Great for drinks, spice jars and smaller portions. Most flip-cap and straw lids come in this size.

Wide mouth

Roughly 3.5" outer thread diameter. Easier to fill, scoop and clean — ideal for meal prep, overnight oats and bulkier storage.

Tip: measure the inside opening of your jar, or check the box your jars came in. Accessories are almost always sold per mouth size.

Good to know

Frequently asked questions

How do I know if I have regular or wide mouth jars?
Measure the inner opening: regular mouth is about 2.75" across the threads, wide mouth about 3.5". Accessories are sold to fit one or the other.
Are these accessories dishwasher safe?
Many plastic and silicone lids are top-rack dishwasher safe, but it varies by product. Check the listing before buying.
Will these fit other brands of jars?
Most accessories are designed for standard regular/wide mouth threading used by common mason jar brands, but always confirm compatibility on the product page.
Can I use storage lids for canning?
No. Plastic storage lids are for dry/refrigerated storage and drinks — not for heat processing or canning. Use proper canning lids for preserving.
