do you think these could be used for honey gifts or too small and might leak?

They're kinda small, about 2 inches high and about 1 inch diameter. I don't know about using them as a liquid container the bail is a bit flimsy. They do work good for seasonings and herbs.

Definitely might leak. Great size for just a taste, but if left on their side it is possible to leak. It didn't seem to have a really strong seal. I do like them for herbs.

Last time I was in the store checking these out again they seem to have improved on the quality of their "sealability" Also it's a nice size for a gift of honey for someone that's a tea drinker and just uses a little in their cup. :)

The lids do not seal tight. The metal clasp are soft and weak. They hold less than 1/2 cup. Just a little over 6 table spoons each. I was unable to use them for liquid but honey is thicker and unless they are turned over it would work, for a short period. Hope this helps. After hours and hours of searching for a small decorative container to hold vanilla I ended up using the 4oz mason jars for jelly. I also found some cute jars at the dollar store. I now use my jars for beads.

I believe that they would be work for small children to drink from. They may hold about 3-4 oz.

I wouldn't recommend putting breast milk in them. I don't think they'll seal well enough

We use them in a plastic bucket to water our chickens. We seal the edges with silicone and have never had a leakage problem.

It will should work ok for honey but I have to be honest never used it for that purpose.

If sealed properly, these bags will not come unsealed. Personally, I prefer to make a wide seal. I do not think you could do a gallon of liquid in this bag and be able to seal properly because it is liquid. I would put your honey in another container then seal.

Absolutely! I love them and have bought over a half dozen. Just do not drop one. They will crack or like I did on the bottom edge it crushed a 1" circle. They then leak to the air space but still do not leak. Will still buy more as I favor them above all others!

They're small enough that you probably could and theys rent heavy. I used them for my daughters 3rd birthday party to put jewelry in for the girls. You may be fine with hot glue since they're so light. Good luck!

I wasn't really happy with them. Some seemed to be water tight but some of them did leak around the lid. I wouldn't purchase them again. As far as air tight I don't know about that I filled them as I sold product to my customers on the spot.

I haven't experienced leaks with them, you can place them horizontal and assuming you have a flat even surface they'll be fine, but I own these and the 5 ounce medela bottles that are fatter and I prefer those.While they haven't broken on me I feel like these are more flemsy and I can't store as much milk so I've switched to the larger ones.

First off I just want to say I love this honey pot. The silicon dipper is designed to drop slowly. But if your honey is very thin you could have trouble with dripping. I have never used a store bought honey with it so I'm not sure how thin they are but I wouldn't think they would be fine. My 3 year old has no problem getting honey all by himself. This would not work for syrup tho unless is was very think.

It would depend on what you put in them. If you filled them I would think not. They are a bit hard to close and open so I would be careful with doing this for children depending on the age. I used these for charms that I was selling and can tell you they worked well for those but they do not hold a lot. They do not spread open much and do not hold any form of liquid. I would really recommend that you think about this twice especially if they are really young as I would worry about choking hazard.

I would not put liquid in these because they do not seem to we 100% water-tight. I would put something like mayo or solid butter. Actually, the main reason I really bought these is to carry my earrings when I have to go to my part time job, not for carrying condiments at all.

I do not know for sure if they would leak. The lids are very nice though. I am sorry, I have not yet tried to see if they would leak while packed in a lunch bag.

I was curious as well. I found this video so I expect it's a similar concept, but I don't know how much of a difference it would make for a jar of honey. http://youtu.be/fXcoM1W5kJ4

Yes they'll be great for the creams and balms. I use some of the jars for same purposes and never have a leakage etc. problem. The lid is wide so it's easy to use too!
