Print Project

Step 1

Create a snowflake sticker with your Cricut® Machine and cut it out from black vinyl.
TIP: Don’t have a Cricut®? Simply use a snowflake sticker!

Step 2

Adhere your snowflakes to your Mason jar where desired.
TIP: The stickers are a "mask", so after the jar has been painted and the stickers are removed, you will be left with a snowflake shaped "window".

Step 3

Pour a small amount of white paint onto a paper plate (or paint palette). Add one layer of white paint onto your Mason jar and let dry.

Step 4

Paint a layer of Robin's Egg Blue over the white paint. Let dry; then add a second coat of Robin's Egg Blue paint. Let dry.

Step 5

Seal paint with a layer of Mod Podge® and let it dry.

Step 6

Carefully peel off your snowflake stickers to reveal the glass beneath.
TIP: Fill your jars with treats and then set your painted jar inside a treat bag, Wrap jute and lace around "neck" of the jar, tie in a knot and trim ends to desired length.
