Hi! We are offering a tutorial for our crafters today.
An important thing to consider about your product is the way it is displayed. The presentation of a handmade item should have
that extra special handmade touch, showing that your product is extra special.
Today we are going to show you how to cover ordinary jar lids with scrapbook paper. This is an easy project, and definitely worth the effort. It's one of those finishing touches that we crafters love!
Next, I cut slots all the way around, stopping at the traced line.
For my adhesive, I used a mixture of white glue and water. It works great as a decoupage medium, and dries stiff and clear.
This is the messy part of the project, so I protected my work surface with wax paper.
I coated the unpatterned side of the paper with the glue and water mixture.
Then I set the lid in place, and began wrapping the sides up and over the edges of the lid.
I used my leftover scrapbook paper to print a label for my product from my computer.
Once the lid was wrapped in the paper, I added a coating of the glue mixture to the outside of the paper. I allowed the lid to dry.
Thank you for reading this tutorial.
