Glass painting

Well it's been a while but I've been feeling crafty again and decided to try out something new in preparation for making my Christmas presents.

This one was a practice run and I ended up giving it to my friend alongside her birthday present. 

So I used a simple small glass tumbler which could be used as a candle holder, make up/pen holder or however you want =) 

I used coasters to keep the glass still whilst I drew with the silver outliner. 

I did this in stages letting the flowers dry before turning the glass round. 


Once all the outline was dry it was time to paint =)


I used a watercolour brush and cleaned it with a tissue each time I changed colour I was a bit scared water might affect the colours. 

When the paint was dry I used glitter nail varnish and stick on diamantes to add a bit of bling to the finished product. 


After this little tester I've started a bigger project for someone else but obviously it's a pressi so I can't reveal it till after Christmas! =)
