Painting on Glass – What You Need to Know

I’m kind of addicted to Pinterest…so much more fun than Facebook. Anyway, I pin many glass goodies and tutorials too, see the link below.

There are so many! Today I found a little something about painting on glass. The good thing about painting on glass is that you don’t need a melting kiln or to cut any glass.

You don’t have to be a “glass” person but you probably will be once you start to play with it.

The website this is on is the blog paintedfurnitureideas.com. Check it out. Good advice is given. And since it’s the holiday season you can probably whip out some cool holiday gifts.

Since writing this article back in 2014, we have come across so many more techniques and ideas., But I have to admit this red-robin Christmas bird is still one of my favorite painted glass techniques. For all my glass painting projects, I exclusively use Vitrail  Glass paints.  If you are not a painter in drawing skills, then use a stencil on the inside of your glass and color it in like a children’s art project. Simply place the printed design into your glass and paint it onto the outside of your glass.  Such a fun and easy way to make painted glasses with minimal crafty skills.
