2. Draw or trace your design on the contact paper.
3. Cut out the design.
4. Apply the contact paper to the jar. Note:the exposed area will be etched.

For one family gathering I bought some alphabet stickers and etched the names of my, and my brother’s, children onto drinking glasses. No mix ups at the party and the kids could take their glass home.
This is so cute…my friend is just moving into his first apartment and i can use this idea to label different jars for things he can save money for…for instance- groceries, bar money, etc:) thanks for such a great idea.
