Gift for Christmas ~ By Jayne Loughlin

Good day Fiskarettes Hope you are all warm and toasty in this weather !

I am making gifts this year for some of my family & friends. I made a Tea Cup Candle for Yesterdays post & today I’ve made Marmalade…actually I didnt make the Marmalade today I’ve just decorated a Jar I made earlier

I have started off drawing round a Circle you could use this Template  and then cut it out using Fiskars Pinking shears. My Material is a bit stretchy so it doesn’t look like a Circle now ! Use a Circle that is larger than your own lids.

I added a piece of Christmas Ribbon and secured over the jar using a elastic band…sorry about the purple hairband i’ve forgotten to get elastic bands and this was the only colour band I had that was unused ! I’ll swap it later.

Then I made a Simple Tag using the Fiskars Scalloped Lace Border Punch & my Pinking Shears again & decorated it a little.

I thread the tag onto some ribbon (the ribbon was too wide so I cut it down using Pinking Shears.

You could make all sorts of gifts in Jars this way, I’m making Bah Humbugs next
