In the last decade, I have spent more time than is reasonable looking for affordable, leak proof lids for mason jars (I realize that this is a highly specific mission, but if you read this blog, I think you’ll feel me). While the two-piece lids we use for canning can be leak proof, if they’re not sealed to the jar they’re not always perfectly reliable.
A handful of companies have brought various leak proof lids to market in recent years, and while they are perfectly useful, they don’t always meet the affordability market. Happily, the folks at Mason Jar Lifestyle have cracked the code. They’ve recently introduced a line of totally leak proof, airtight, and entirely affordable lids. I could not be more pleased.
The lids come in both regular and wide mouth sizes. Sold in boxes of five, they cost $14.99 for the regular mouth and $16.99 for the wide mouth. Each box contains a rainbow of lids, which means you can color-code your leftovers or lunch packing (a different color for everyone in the family, perhaps?).
The thing that makes these lids different from all the other storage lids out there is the fact that each one is fitted a removable liner made out of food safe, platinum cured silicone. Because it’s a full liner rather than a gasket, your food or drink never comes in contact with the plastic lid (though it is BPA-free, if you’re concerned). Both lids and liners are dish washer safe.
These are now the first lids I reach for when I’m putting away leftovers or opening a jar of jam for the fridge. I may need to buy another set, just to keep from running out!
The good folks at Mason Jar Lifestyle want to share the storage lid love and so have offered up two sets of lids (each set includes on box each of regular and wide mouth lids) to our Food in Jars community. Please use the widget below to enter (US residents only).

I would use them for packing lunches!
I would use them for my overnight oats!
Sauerkraut is so tasty and I make it in quart jars where they could really use a resealable lid like these.
I’ll use it to store smoothie to take to work.
Nice! It will be good to have a non-metal option.
I love all the colors! I would use them for so many things, where do I start….? Storage in the frig for canned items after opened, leftovers, lunch, pantry!!
These would be so helpful for salad dressings. I love making those in jars, but the lid situation is never ideal.
I would use these lids on the mason jar overnight oatmeal breakfast mixture before I refrigerated it. Because there are so many colors, I would use them for leftovers with a note on the refrigerator door telling me which color is the oldest.
I love these! Too often I can’t use the metal lids and the plastic ones I have are barely useful. I use widemouth jars every day, for tea and lunch and lots of things. I’d probably have all the lids in use at the same time!
I would use these lids to replace the two-piece ones I am currently using to store mainly pasta (keeps the second half of the package fresh) and grains.
These soups would be fantastic for leftovers and homemade dressings and sauces. How exciting!
These will be perfect transporting back and forth to work. The regular white lids are not leak proof. I will definitely be buying these. But winning them would be great!
I meant lids, not kids – although keeping my kids in drawers sounds like a nice idea sometimes
I am constantly looking for kids such as these in my cupboards and drawers. I’d love to try this set!
after just cleaning up a refridg spill, I would use them just because
These lids look wonderful for salad dressing!
Such pretty colors! Just recently transitioned to jar storage and it is the best!
Love the colors!
I think they would be a great addition to my “to go” jars
These would be awesome for my elderberry syrup that is so sticky. Love the colors.
I’d use them on my jars of pickled herring and partial cans of coconut milk!
For opened canned jars but also I love just storing food in them. The double lids are such a pain. These would be awesome! Grated cheese, Chimichurri sauce etc.
My fridge is jar lid anarchy, but these would be great for carrying tea in my bag.
These lids would come in very handy! Need something to bring cream to work in my lunchbox for coffee, love the colors.
I would use these to store cold drinks and dressings in the fridge! ❤️
The Ball plastic lids are…sometimes leakproof. I’d love to replace them with these!
Oh! all the possibilities!
I”d use them to store crafts and other things.
Lunch supplies, especially sauces and soup broth.
I would lovvve these! I would use them to top my jar of dressing, leftover sauces, jar of chicken stock, applesauce, or the other countries things my Mason jars contain!
no more spilled smoothies!
These are so much nicer than reusing the lid and band after opening a ferment or a canned product.
I WOULD LOVE TO WIN THEM 🙂
Will check the black friday sale as well.
Would love these for so many things – Salads for lunch, my famous BBQ Sauce, and more!
I’d definitely use these for finished ferments stored in the fridge. I like the idea of them not getting rusty 🙂
I would use daily for all my food in jar storage needs and share one with my sister!
A great give-away! I would use these for making my different salad dressings, that I like to make in mason jars. Great colors too!
Thank you.
What a great product! I would love to use these for storing pickles or anything acidic in the fridge. It would be so much better than metal rings which corrode when exposed to brine.
I would use this for storing leftovers.
OMG! Genius! Finally! Would be awesome to be able to convert all of my current covers with the insert.
These lids are such a good idea!
Lol. This is awesome
This will really change how I use jars day-to-day.
I am constantly searching for jar lids….these would be so convenient!
Oh man, could switch a bunch of things we have stored in plastic containers to mason jars! Be great for storing puckles in the fridge so the rings don’t rust.
This is what my weekly food prep is missing!!!
The lids are perfect for storing leftovers in the fridge and I can easily tell by the lid that it’s not sealed by canning. They would also be great for storing soup and transporting it for lunch at work
Always looking for new ways to use all my jars lying around! These look great for toting to friends’ homes or for leftovers.
I want these! I have also been looking for affordable leak proof lids!
I’d use these for all the veg stock I make that I end up storing in the fridge! I always feel weird laying the jars on their sides and occasionally I’ve had a leak so these sound perfect!
These sound amazing!
