Decorate the Edge

Kate Pullen
Cut a strip of paper that fits around the edge of the jar lid. Decorate this as required. I cut the paper to follow the pattern of the rubber stamped image, however a scalloped edge or cutting the edge with patterned scissors would also work well. Glue this strip into place to finish the lid.

This is just one way to give a plain jar lid a make-over. This is ideal for decorating jars to give as gifts. Don't forget to make a gift tag and label to go with it!
