Glass Etching on Cookie Jars with a Cricut Stencil!

Get the free glass jar stencil designs at https://jennifermaker.com/glass-etchi... I love etching glass, and I'm always amazed at how easy it is to do. Last year I taught you how to etch a casserole dish with a nice flat bottom. So I thought this year it would be fun to teach you how to etch a curved surface like a glass jar! These make wonderful gifts -- just fill them with treats or gifts! In this video, I show you how to make a glass etching stencils for personalized cookie and treat jars!

I have great success with Armor Etch cream. I put the link to this etching cream below! Now to get a cool design onto the jar with the etching cream, you need a glass etching STENCIL! You can make one with permanent vinyl in ANY color. You can, of course, use stencil vinyl instead, but I find that the permanent vinyl works just as well. Do not use removable vinyl -- it won't stick well enough. You also need the same size of transfer tape, regular grip, to get your glass etching stencil design onto your jar. The jar itself should be curved in just one direction, meaning its sides should be straight up and down. If you use a jar that is more like a ball shape, you'll find it really REALLY hard to get your vinyl glass etching stencil on unless you keep your design very small. I'm using a one gallon jar for this project, and the link to this exact jar is below. Now it's also important to have some protective equipment, because etching cream is caustic and you do not want it on your skin or in your eyes. I recommend gloves, safety goggles, and an apron. Other very useful things for this project include paint brushes, painter's tape, isopropyl alcohol, and a lint-free cloth like these blue shop towels. I cut my stencil on a Cricut cutting machine with a fine-point place and a green, standard grip mat. Now you just need the design for your jar! I've created three different designs for you to experiment with, and they can all be personalized! So let me show you where to find these designs and then how to use them to cut stencils and etch your jar!
