Look what can be done with a $1.00 wine glass and some Pebeo Glass Paints!

To this!
Here is what you will need:
- Wine glasses of your choice, I bought a pack of 4 for $4.00 from a discount store!
- Rubbing alcohol such as ISOCOL antiseptic (available from the medicine sections in supermarkets) and cotton wool or paper towel to remove any residue and dirt from glasses
- I also used hand sanitiser gel to make sure my hands were clean and I didn't leave sticky fingerprints
- Lint free cloth to remove any lint
- Pebeo Vitrea 160 Thinner (also called Diluent)
- Pebeo Vitrea 160 Glass paint in your choice of colour ( I used Turquoise and Oriental Green in the Glossy)
- Pebeo Vitrea 160 Transparent Outliner (I used Pearl)
- A Plastic bowl with a flat bottom to work over and catch drips
- A soft paintbrush (I like Princeton Brushes)

Once you have cleaned your glass and hands, use the "Outliner" to create simple shapes on your glass and allow to dry for 10 to 15 minutes. |
Once completed I let the glasses completely dry for about 24 hours. To make the colours dishwasher safe, bake in a kitchen oven at 160 degrees C (325 degrees F) for 40 minutes. Place your glasses in the oven when it is cold, and remove when cold.
I'd love to try the diluent/thinner. And I like the idea of the outliner to add interest . Thanks for sharing.
