Making your own lids for Oui jars is a great way to save money and get creative with your canning. There are a few different ways to make lids, and each has its own advantages and disadvantages. The most important thing is to choose a method that works best for you and your canning needs.
One popular method for making lids is to use Mason jar rings. This is a quick and easy way to create lids that fit snugly on Oui jars. However, it can be difficult to find rings that fit Oui jars properly.
Another downside of this method is that the rings can rust over time, which can affect the taste of your canned goods.
If you’re looking for a more permanent solution, you can try using metal screw-on lids. These lids will last longer than Mason jar rings and provide a tighter seal.
However, they can be tricky to install and may require some trial and error before you get them just right.

What Lids Fit Oui Jars
Oui by Yoplait is a line of French-style yogurts that come in clear, round jars. The lids for these jars are all white with a green band around the edge. There are two different types of lids for Oui jars: twist-off lids and peel-off lids.
The twist-off lid has a tab on the top that you can grip with your fingers and twist to open. The peel-off lid has a perforated strip around the edge that you can grip with your fingers and peel off to open. Both types of lids fit snugly on the jar and create an airtight seal.
If you have Oui yogurt at home and want to know which type of lid it came with, simply look at the top of the jar. If there is a tab, it’s a twist-off lid; if there is a perforated strip, it’s a peel-off lid. If you’re not sure which type of lid to buy when purchasing Oui yogurt, don’t worry – both types will fit any Oui jar!
Do Weck Lids Fit Oui Jars
Weck jars are a type of glass jar that is often used for canning and preserving food. The jars have a unique shape and come with a rubber sealing ring and metal clamp that helps to keep the contents fresh. Oui by Yoplait is a brand of yogurt that comes in a similar style jar, but without the sealing ring or metal clamp.
So, do Weck lids fit Oui jars?
The answer is yes! Weck lids will fit on Oui jars, although you won’t be able to create an airtight seal like you can with the Weck jars.
This means that your yogurt may not stay as fresh for as long, but it will still be safe to eat. If you’re looking for an alternative to traditional yogurt containers, Weck jars are a great option!

Not only do silicone lids keep your yogurt fresher for longer, but they also make it easier to transport. If you’re taking your yogurt to work or school, you can simply pop on a lid and go.

Cheap Lids for Oui Jars
Oui by Yoplait is a line of French-style yogurts that come in collectible glass jars. The jars are meant to be reused, but the lids are not.
So, what’s a yogurt lover to do when they want to save their Oui jars but don’t want to spend money on new lids?
Look no further than the cheap and easy solution of using plastic wrap!
Here’s how it works: Cut a piece of plastic wrap that’s slightly larger than the lid of your Oui jar. Place the plastic wrap over the top of the jar and screw on the ring until it’s snug.
That’s it!
Your Oui jar is now reusable and you didn’t have to spend a lot of money on new lids. Win-win!

What Size are Oui Yogurt Lids?
The lids on Oui yogurt containers come in two different sizes. The first size is 2.25 inches in diameter and the second size is 3 inches in diameter.
Can Oui Jars Be Used for Candles?
Yes, OUI jars can be used for candles. To do so, simply remove the label from the jar and clean the surface of the glass. Then, use a double boiler to melt some wax, pour it into the jar, and let it cool.
Once the wax is solidified, you can then add a wick to the center of the candle and enjoy your new creation!
Are Oui Jars Reusable?
Oui jars are not reusable. While the jar may be made of glass, the lid is not and is not meant to be removed. The foil seal on the lid is also not meant to be removed, so once you’ve opened the jar, you’ll need to discard it.
Can You Can Oui Jars?
Yes, you can OUI jars! Here’s how:
First, make sure that your jar is clean and sterile.
You can do this by boiling it for 10 minutes, or by running it through the dishwasher on the hot cycle.
Once your jar is clean, dry it off completely. Then, add your ingredients – whatever you’re using to make your preserves (fruit, sugar, etc.).
Fill the jar to within 1/2 inch of the top with boiling water. Put on the lid and screw on the ring until it’s “fingertip tight.” This means that you should be able to unscrew the ring with just a few fingers – don’t over-tighten it.
Place the filled and sealed jar in a pot of boiling water. Make sure that there’s at least 1 inch of water above the level of the jar. Boil for 10 minutes (for altitudes up to 1,000 feet) or 15 minutes (for altitudes over 1,000 feet).
Carefully remove the jar from the pot and place it on a towel or cooling rack to cool. As it cools, you’ll hear a “pinging” sound as the vacuum seal forms. Once cooled, check that the seal is intact by pressing down in the center of the lid – if it pops up and makes a clicking sound, then it’s not sealed properly and you’ll need to start again with a new lid.
Assuming everything has gone according to plan and your jar is sealed properly, congrats! Your homemade preserve will last for upwards of a year – enjoy!
Conclusion
Oui jars are a popular way to store food, but they can be expensive. This blog post shows how to make your own lids for Oui jars using items you probably already have around the house. You will need some sort of container (a mason jar or coffee mug will work), a piece of cardboard, and something to cut the cardboard with (a knife or scissors).
Cut a circle out of the cardboard that is slightly smaller than the opening of your container. Place the lid on top of the jar and screw on the ring. Your homemade Oui jar lid is now ready to use!
