Ingredients
  

  • Large glass jar
  • Everyday Vinyl in white
  • Cricut Maker or other precision cutting machine
  • “All You Need is Love and the Beach” project template in Design Space
  • Sand clean and dry
  • Photo of choice printed and cut to fit inside the jar
  • Sea shells
  • Faux greenery
  • Cotton corded rope in white 1/2″ thick
  • Transfer tape

Instructions
 

  • Thoroughly wash out the jar and remove any labels
  • If you have a Cricut Maker, Silhouette or other precision cutting machine, you can create a fun vinyl decal to stick on to the mason jar.
  • You can open the Cricut Design Space site and upload the “All You Need Is Love and the Beach” project template.
  • Select “Customize” to adjust the size of the phrase in order for it to fit on the mason jar.
  • Click “Make It” and select Everyday Vinyl from the list of materials.
  • Place the white Everyday Vinyl on the standard grip mat and load it into the cutting machine.
  • Cut out the phrase on a piece of white Everyday Vinyl using your Cricut Maker or Silhouette cutting machine.
  • When done cutting and mat is unloaded, weed out the decal discarding the excess vinyl and keeping only the lettering needed.
  • Apply a piece of transfer tape to the lettering and remove the backing from the vinyl.
  • Apply the vinyl transfer to the bottom third of the glass jar and carefully remove the transfer tape.
  • To assemble the Beach Photo Jar, fill one-third of the jar with clean, dry sand.
  • Place your photo of interest inside the jar and place it standing up in the sand. Insert your faux greenery in front and in behind the photo.
  • Add in the seashells
  • Tie some decorative cotton rope around the neck of the jar for an added touch. And that’s it!
