Instructions
Start by cutting the word “GROW” from the vinyl on your craft cutter. Remove the outside from the vinyl word and any letter “middles” (like the O).
Apply the transfer tape and remove the vinyl from the backing.
Apply the vinyl to your jar and press down really well. Make sure it is completely adhered along all edges.
Apply thick layer of etching cream. Be sure to read the instructions on the bottle and wear gloves when working with chemicals like these.
Turn on your timer for 15 minutes and allow the jar to sit. Come back and remove the Etchall with your squeegee and put it right back into the bottle to use again next time. Wash away the residue and you are ready to assemble your garden gift in a jar.
Add your items to the inside of the jar.
