Next, I cut out a square of contact paper and punched a circle out of the middle. I used some letter stickers to add the word bath in the middle of the circle.
I used a glass etching product that I found at Michaels and followed the instructions on the package. Just glob on the cream in a thick layer over your desired area.
My cream instructed me to wait 60 seconds and then rinse it off. So that is what I did! The end result is a nice etched image.
That's it! Now I have a bath jar to store my bath fizzies. Right now mine are all in little bags because they are different scents, but next I may add some bath salts and a little wooden scooper.
Since this is a new technique for me, I am using this piece for my Blogging Business Artisans January challenge piece. We were challenged to create something using a new technique and it was just the boost I needed to finally try glass etching!
This turned out great! And you're really on the ball with the challenge! Way to go :)
ReplyDeleteCute idea!
ReplyDeleteSo cute!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea for the January challenge! This is so easy and has such a beautiful effect.
ReplyDeletePretty! I have always meant to try glass etching. I have a couple champagne bottles from New Years..hmmmmm.
ReplyDeletegreat project, Jenny! I love your result! I have tried glass etching before and it's fun. Maybe you could make jars for all your scents. These would make great gifts, too!
ReplyDeleteGreat project -- love the way it turned out! I've wanted to try glass etching too -- might just have to get over to my local Michaels and get some of that Armour Etch! I like that you used stickers for the word; good idea!
ReplyDeleteWhat a terrific idea! That looks like a candle jar, to tell you the truth...and I had not thought of etching it. Your project turned out wonderfully.
