Back in March, I shared this tutorial on some glass bowls that I hand painted with multi-color dots. These bowls now sit on a red table from Target which makes me love them even more; I am very glad that I decided to use red in the original color scheme.
I used the same process to make these stemless wine glasses for my mother-in-law’s birthday. Her absolute favorite color is red, so I used FolkArt enamel paint in Engine Red and Magenta with a little bit of Baby Pink and White.
I am excited to use this process in the future with other color schemes and see how the look changes.
As I suggested with the glass bowls, I would recommend hand washing only. Also, make sure not to put the paint too far up on the glass. I left a little over an inch clearance. When a person drinks from it, there mouth should NOT be touching any of the paint.
I link up to the following parties, including Serenity Now, Shabby Nest, Whipperberry, Homecoming, Homestories A to Z, Finding Silver Pennies, Organizing Junkie, The Weekly Creative, Thirty Handmade Days, and the Monthly Pinterest Challenge.
