Description

Instructions

1. 

   Be sure your jar is completely clean. Trace, draw or stencil a design onto the paper side of stick-on Contact paper. If you're using letters, be sure they're backwards. Cut out the design using an Xacto knife. Peel off the backing and stick the stencil onto the jar.

2. 

   Liberally apply the etching cream inside the cut outs. Let it sit for an hour.

3. 

   Rinse off the etching cream and remove the stencil. I had a couple of spots that needed a little more time, so I carefully applied the cream in those areas and let it sit for another hour.

4. 

   Fill your jar with something fun!
