The Painting of Dishes. . .


I saw some stuff about glass decorating a while ago,
and I wanted to try it.

But I didn't want to spend lots of money on the right kind of paint before I knew if I'd be any good at it. . .

So I put some regular craft paint inside an elmers glue bottle:


The first go was terrible...


But after I got used to the spacing and how much the paint was going to run, it came out much better. . .


Now I just have to get the right kind of paint and try again. :]

this is such a cute idea. when you get the right kind of paint - can you let us know what you used... this would be an awesome wedding present - with the bride and grooms monogram!
