How to Assemble the Jars
Cut around each word with a pair of scissors.
Peel away the excess vinyl around the cut images and discard.
Cut a piece of transfer tape a bit larger than the size of the text.
Peel away the transfer tape backing but ensure the transfer tape is not overly sticky.
Dab the sticky side of the transfer tape with your hand to weaken the adhesive.
Place the transfer tape overtop of the cut word.
Gently rub the vinyl to help it stick to the transfer tape.
Peel away the vinyl backing, leaving just the image adhered to the transfer tape.
Position the phrase with the transfer tape on to the smooth side of a jar and press in place.
Press the vinyl phrase down with your fingers to help it to stick to the painted glass jar.
Slowly and carefully remove the transfer tape leaving the vinyl image on the jar.
Repeat for the other mason jars.
