* Dog or Cat Treats
* Baby Grooming or Baby Travel items
You can also use a "Gift in the Jar" Recipe and finish it off with a cross stitch picture with an extra unique touch! They may be quite uncomplicated to create and I want to share with you generate an income make mine. You can purchase a puff up kit but I find they're a bit pricey and so i decided to make sure they are differently. Choose which variety of theme or picture you want to stitch and be sure that it will fit in either a typical or wide mouth jar lid.
You will require:
* Jar of your liking with a lid and ring
* Cross stitch picture to suit
* Poster Board
* Quilt Batting
* Adhesive Sheet (normally discovered close to the scrapbook section)
* Ribbon
You should be in a position to buy many of these items your nearby craft store or online.
Directions:
With all the flat piece of the lid like a pattern, cut out a circle of poster board and adhesive. Using the ring with the lid, trace the interior part around the quilt batting and eliminate. This will make your piece puff up somewhat but not too much.
Layer your pieces as follows:
Location the adhesive circle together with the poster board circle. Center the quilt batting on top of the adhesive. This would leave a little border around where adhesive shows. Then, location your cross stitch at the top and cut the perimeters that hang within the poster board. With this type of adhesive, it is possible to eliminate and center your cross stitch piece just before cutting. After that you can location the cross stitch piece into your lid and set it about the jar. Add ribbon to get a finishing touch. Some also like to add lace or raffia.
