Supplies

• Mason Jar
• Tea Towel
• Ribbon
• Gingerbread Cookie Mix
• Iron On Vinyl & Regular Vinyl

Cutting the Vinyl

First, I like to start by cutting all the vinyl, I use iron-on vinyl for the tea towel and permanent for the glass mason jar.

I created my Cricut design for the recipe and cut it out on iron-on vinyl. You can use any cookie recipe that you like though.

This was my first time using iron-on vinyl and I am a big fan. The iron-on vinyl was super easy to weed and use.

I also cut out all my permanent vinyl for the mason jar.

Cookie Recipe Tea Towel

After I weeded all the iron-on vinyl, I heat pressed it to my tea towel using an iron. I set the iron to the cotton setting and held it over all the vinyl lettering for about 15 seconds.

There are fancy heat press machines which I would love to get in the future but for now, my iron will work.

Plus my iron never really gets used except for projects so it’s perfect!

Once the recipe tea towel was done I moved onto the mason jar cookie mix.

DIY Cookie Mix Recipe

The jar looked a little plain so I spruced it up with a fun gingerbread design I found in the Cricut free images.

Make sure to Windex the jar before applying any stickers or vinyl. The grease or oils on the jar will make the vinyl or stickers not as permanent.

Now it’s time to add the dry mix ingredients to the mason jar.

Here is the recipe I used, but there are plenty of great ones out there.

How cute is this little gingerbread cookie cutter! I found it at Target for $1 and I think it adds a little extra something special.

This pre-made cookie mix and tea towel set is the perfect homemade gift for the holidays.

This cookie gift set is super budget friendly to make and you could easily change out the cookie mix and recipe for other cookies or occasions.

I hope this helped knock out at least one homemade gift on your list.
