Cute Spice Jars

Made on a Glowforge

I’m really keeping my GF busy lately! No, I haven’t named it yet like some of you have… Any suggestions?

I just finished these cute spice jars and love how they turned out. These will make a great gift!

I read all the tips on the list and don’t remember who said to use a then film of dish soap but it was brilliant!

They do look great. The list of things I want to try and haven’t is growing longer by the day!

I love how they appear perfectly positioned. Did you do them one by one in the center or did you make a cardboard template?

Lovely!
Since you’re using it for spice you could call it DuneForge! (Forgrrakis?)
(Sorry, was watching that last night :-P)

Very nice. Some day I would love to have all my spices in similar containers for ease in storage. These are great!

I was in too much of a hurry to use my first one, so it was just named “Glowforge” and I felt kind of guilty when I’d see all the clever names other people had given theirs.

Then it died, so while I was waiting for its replacement I made up for my initial shortcoming by giving the second one TWO names: “Ignatius Ordgar” (sharp fire).

Alas, Ignatius lived a very short life, and was replaced by #3, which was named “Charm” (because it was the third time, and I hoped the last!). My optimism was unfounded, however, as Charm also had to return to the mothership.

By then I’d become a bit jaded about the whole “cool name” thing, since it felt like an exercise in wasted effort, so #4 was just named “Four.” (There is a book I enjoyed with a character named Four, so that helped to justify my laziness.) So far, Four has been steadfast (as was his namesake), so I’m looking forward to a long and happy life with him.

I’m all out of names, so I don’t really have any suggestions. :wink: But I really like your jars!

Thanks! I made a template for placing the jars first, then placed the artwork over the jars. Painstaking… But all twelve were done at once.

These look great! I’ve been saving my empties to practice on but haven’t gotten to it yet. Thank you for the inspiration!

And thank you too! I have had them in the back of mind for a while and so glad they turned out so well!

Very nice.

Can you share a link for the jars, and post your engrave settings in the Beyond the Manual area?
