While looking at Pinterest to find ways to use my extra canning jars, I found this neat idea to make Halloween Lanterns. It also gave me a chance to cut vinyl with my Cricut.
I found a great site to order vinyl from - Expressions Vinyl. They also have videos on how to "weed" and transfer vinyl so it was perfect for a beginner.
I used Martha Stewart's new glass paints to paint my 3 jars. I baked them in the oven to set the paint.
I began by creating my Halloween design in Cricut Craft Room and cutting them out of Black Outdoor Vinyl.
I used transfer tape to apply the deigns to my jars - This was so easy!
After removing the transfer tape, I had 3 beautiful Halloween Lanterns!
I used battery tea lights inside the jars so I could leave the lids on. I may make handles to hang them on my porch for Halloween night!
