Every quarter I have been participating in the Silhouette Challenge and this month the theme is holiday. I have been in LOVE with bottle brush trees this season and I thought it'd be fun to make an ornament craft with them. I have seen them in little jars and I thought it'd be fun to do a couple of different sizes AND to add some vinyl to the front of the jar to change it up a bit from the norm! I just LOOOOOVE how these jars turned out!

Now I'm going to share with you how I created these adorable little jars. And, don't worry... if you don't have a Silhouette, you can always make these ornaments without the vinyl on the front and I PROMISE you that they'll still be adorable!


How to Make a Mason Jar Christmas Tree Ornament
OrnaMake1
If you're planning to add vinyl to your jars, you'll want mason jars that don't have any raised words/design on them. I picked up two sizes of jars at Hobby Lobby. You'll also want some bottle brush trees (mine are from Oriental Trading), craft snow, twine and vinyl.


OrnaMake2
Glue your tree to the bottom of the jar with some hot glue.



OrnaMake3 OrnaMake4
Add a capful or two of the craft snow.

Then add some twine around the base and another piece to connect from top to bottom to make a hanger.


Making Vinyl Art for the Ornament

Untitled Untitled
First, you'll need to find some artwork in your library (or purchase new) and size it to the correct dimensions. Then, go into Cut Settings and select Vinyl, set your blade to the correct number and select Cut Around Edge.

After your design is cut with the Silhouette, pull away the excess vinyl.


OrnaMakeS3 OrnaMakeS4
Take your backing paper and apply the sticky side down on top of your design. Peel it away so that the design is now on the sticky backing paper.


OrnaMakeS5 OrnaMakeS6
Apply it to your jar and peel away. You now have the design on your jar!
