I can’t believe that in less than 3 weeks is Easter🙈 It is incredible how fast time flies! It feels faster than ever before 🤔
Anyway, I like spring, it’s smell and voices. View of beautiful Nature that is waking up from a Winter dream.
I also love this special energy that comes to me always around Easter.
It is very deep feeling full of calmness and positive energy and I like to have more quiet days focusing only on me.
Even this project came to my mind like blinking bulb, saying that I really have to do it this year, so I finally have 💪🏻🙌🏻
And you know what? It felt great and I am super happy to show my latest project.
Let’s get started!
What do we need:
- Glass with Lid
- Glass color (Chalkboard color)
- Sticker/ Tape
- Painting brush/ Roller
- Paper cutter
- Scissors
- Hair dryer
- Owen
Since I have this special glass with metal closure I had to first tak it off and clean properly glass from the outside.
I have got this super cute mini printer for my B-day😃 which is absolutely perfect for this kind of projects (or printing your Affirmations or pictures). I have printed out shapes that I wanted to have on glass, cuttend out with scissors and stick it on glass. You can also use paper cutter if you already have shapes that you want to have on a glass (like those small butterflies prepared with a paper cutter).
Before you add stickers make sure your glass is properly cleaned.
You can even create a story from the pictures/ stickers.
We need a color for glass. I have decided to use Chalkboard Color because I want to draw on it 🤓 I think it will be fun.
For first layer I have used roller and dried color with a hair dryer 😃 worked great🙌🏻
After 2 layers with a roller I used brush and made 2 more layers. Each layer was dried with a hair dryer.
After we dry it out last time with a hair dryer we can start removing stickers.
Since I have used paper stickers, they were super stacked below 4 layers of color 🙈 I had to use knife to kind of “cut it out” and take it off glass. It wasn’t a huge problem but next time I would use a different kind of stickers and less layers of color. It is also possible that my color is few years old, the structure is quite thick even after adding water. Now lets go to the Owen.
Reminder: follow instructions on your glass color!
Glass is out of Owen, cooled and ready for completing. Metal part will go back.
Put back main metal part.
Add back Lid and hold it there.
Then add the last smallest part by using pliers. Aaaaand done🙌🏻
Finally we can add handful of colorful chocolate eggs🤩
Tadaaa.
Beautiful Easter decoration for your Easter table with sweets inside.
I hope you have enjoyed this tutorial🤓 I have for sure had a lot of fun 🥳
Let’s meet in a creative dimension!
With Love
