Step 1: Paint Mason Jar

Start by painting your mason jar in the color of your choice. Be sure to start with a clean jar before painting. I like to clean mine with rubbing alcohol, then allow it to dry before painting. Add two coats of paint, allowing each coat to dry before the next.

Step 2: Upload Cut File To Cricut Design Space

Download the cut file above and upload it to Design Space. You can see how to do that here.

Step 3: Cut Design From Vinyl

Cut the file from the vinyl of your choice.

Step 4: Weed Design

Weed away all excess vinyl. Weeding tools make this easier, but they are optional.

Step 5: Add Vinyl To Mason Jar

Once the paint is dry, use transfer tape to apply the vinyl to the front of your DIY mason jar soap dispenser.

Step 6: Add Soap Pump To Mason Jar

Add the soap pump to the top, and you are ready to add your Rae Dunn-inspired project to your bathroom.

FAQs About Mason Jar Soap Dispenser

Here are answers to some of the most frequently asked questions I receive about making a Mason Jar Soap Dispenser. If your question isn’t listed, feel free to drop it in the comments, and I’ll be happy to help!

Can I Use Any Type Of Mason Jar For This Project?

Technically, yes. However, the two things to remember are that 1) the mason jar needs to be smooth-sided (or at least have one smooth side) to apply the vinyl and 2) it needs to be able to fit a pump.

Can I Use Any Cricut Machine For This Project?

Yes, you can! The Cricut Maker, Cricut Explore series, Cricut Joy, Cricut Joy Xtra, and Cricut Venture can all work for this project.

The only thing to keep in mind is that each Cricut machine is different in terms of project size and the materials it can cut. So, depending on what project you have in mind, you might need to resize the SVG file or cut it out in a different material.

Can I Use Any Type Of Vinyl For This Project?

Since this project will involve water, I recommend you use only Permanent Vinyl.

I Downloaded The SVG, And It’s Extremely Large. What Size Should The SVGs Be?

I would size it to match the jar you are using. I don't resize them before uploading.

Will The Chalk Paint Hold When Using The Mason Jar Soap Dispenser? I Have A 3 Year Old That Never Fails To Get Soap All Over The Bottle While Pumping.

I find that it holds up well. My kids are older, though! You can add a sealer over it if you want.
