How Do I Make Valentine Mason Jars?

Step 1

Thoroughly wash jars with soap and hot water and let them dry completely before using.

Step 2

Upload Valentines SVG File into Design Space. Click and drag over each of the phrases separately to adjust the size. Make “Happy Valentine’s” and “Sweet Heart” phrases sized to 2.25″ high and the “Be Mine” phrase sized to 2” high on the Design Space canvas.Next, click and drag each phrase separately, then select “Group” and then “Attach” before proceeding.

Step 3

Select “Make It” in Design Space. Set material type to Premium Vinyl.Follow prompts for loading mat into Maker and cutting the premium vinyl. When cut is complete, unload mat from the Maker. Remove the premium vinyl from the mat.

Step 4

Cut around each phrase with a pair of scissors. Using the weeding tool, peel away the excess vinyl around the cut phrases and discard.

Step 5

Cut a piece of transfer tape a bit larger than the size of the phrase. Peel away the transfer tape backing and place the transfer tape over top of the vinyl phrase. Gently rub the vinyl to help it stick to the transfer tape. Peel away the vinyl backing, leaving just the phrase adhered to the transfer tape.

Step 6

Position the phrase with the transfer tape on to the smooth side of a jar and press in place. You can place the lettering straight across or at an angle. Press the vinyl phrase down with your fingers or with the Cricut scraping tool to help it to stick to the glass jar. Slowly and carefully remove the transfer tape leaving the vinyl phrase on the jar.

Step 7

Using a medium-sized flat paintbrush, apply a coat of Multi-Surface Satin paint in Lipstick to the surface of the mason jar lid. Allow paint to fully dry between coats. Repeat as needed until desired coverage is achieved. Lastly, apply a coat of ultra-fine glitter paint in red over top of the painted red lid. Allow paint to fully dry before using.

Step 8

Fill the jar with sweet treats such as cinnamon heart candies or your favorite Valentine Candy.
