Ingredients
  

  • Set of 2 Jars 1L Smooth Rounded Jar with shoulders; lids removed
  • Multi Surface paint in purple
  • Gold Metallic paint
  • Paintbrush
  • Removable Glitter Vinyl in purple
  • Removable Vinyl in gold
  • Cricut Transfer Tape
  • Cricut Joy and standard grip mat

Instructions
 

  • Thoroughly wash jars with soap and hot water and let them dry completely before using.
  • Brush on a coat of purple multi surface paint on one jar and brush on a coat of gold metallic paint on the other jar.

Preparing the Vinyl Moon and Star Cutouts

  • Using Cricut’s Design Space, insert two circle shapes onto the blank canvas and overlap the circles to create a crescent moon shape on one side.
  • Highlight both circles and select “slice” to separate the shapes. Keep the crescent moon shape and discard the other shapes.
  • Insert a star shape onto the canvas and resize it to fit inside the curve of the crescent moon.
  • Attach the two shapes together and resize them to fit on the jar.
  • Duplicate the image to create two cutouts and change the colors to match your vinyl material color, in our case we’re using purple and gold.
  • Place the vinyl on the mat and insert into the cutting machine.
  • Once cut, remove the vinyl and peel away the excess vinyl leaving only the moon and star shapes.
  • Place a piece of transfer tap over top and transfer the vinyl on to the jar. Gently rub the vinyl on to the jar to help it stick and then peel away the clear transfer tape. Repeat for each jar.
