How to Make a Gingerbread "Oh Snap" Banner Kit in a Mason Jar Cricut Craft
- Make your jar first by trimming your napkin to fit nicely on the jar. I cut off 3 of the four sides, leaving just the clean gingerbread man.
- Coat the jar with a layer of mod podge, then immediately place the prepared gingerbread man napkin on the surface of the jar. Take care to place it carefully because the napkin is thin and fragile--and will tear if you try to move it after the napkin comes in contact with the mod podge.
- Coat the napkin-covered jar with a second layer of mod podge, just to provide extra protection for the napkin. Allow this second layer of mod podge to dry completely.
- Download the cut file set and upload them to Cricut Design Space. Follow the instructions to cut out all of the lettering from black craft felt, two gingerbread men from light brown craft felt and two sets of decorations for the gingerbread man in white and red craft felt.
- Assemble the gingerbread men by hot gluing the desired decorations to the gingerbread man shape.
- Cut out the desired pennant shapes from the burlap. I cut out pennants with two tails, but you can do single tails, rectangles with no tails, diamonds or anything.
- Hot glue the letters to the burlap pennants.
- Hot glue the gingerbread men to burlap pennants.
- Place the pennants in the order you plan to have in the final project.
- Cut the twine or string to the length of the pennants all laid-out, plus 1 foot on each side, for additional space.
- Hot glue the pennants in place on the twine.
- Hang on the mantle!
