Shipping mason jar cookie mixes?

Hope this is in the right subreddit. If not, I'll happily post it elsewhere.

I'm trying to be somewhat thrifty and put together some cookie mixes to put in mason jars. There's a ton of recipes out there, but I'm not seeing a lot about shipping these kinds of gifts. I'm several states away, so it may take a little while to get to family.

A few questions:

  1. Is this even plausible? They're dry ingredients--flour, sugar, sometimes candy, etc.
  2. Do I need to seal these in a certain way to ensure it keeps? If so, what way?
  3. How long would something like this last, given that everything is properly sealed?

Thanks.
