Consider this a tutorial of sorts or a WHAT NOT to DO hint
I have been seeing these types of projects out there in blogland for quite
sometime and have been dying to try it...
all the directions I have seen out there have called for using
2-3 parts water & paint and SWISHING it around inside the bottle and
letting it drip dry...
So here are my finished jars...a couple vintage 1 not so vintage
pretty right?
But wait those are the finished products...
Look here (bottom)
the glass to the right (lighter shade of blue)
that is the one I actually tried using the paint inside the bottle
I know it is hard to tell but the streaks left from letting it drip dry
are yucky! I even tried painting it with the NEW MS paints on the outside
hated that and wiped it off...so what I figured out was
SPRAY PAINT in KRYLON cosmic blue????
(closest blue to turquoise my LOWES had)
and the spray paint adhered so nicely and evenly!
I am thrilled with how they came out...and happy to say I painted
a few more in a shabby pink - will post those tomorrow...
I am linking these sweet things to the following parties:
Have you been crafting lately?
