The secret to painting on glass

It's not really a secret....really.

It's just FUN!

Here's my quick low-down on painting on glass.

(please note that paint can and will chip off)

I started with a copy of my image.

I attached the image on the inside of my glass jar using Frogtape.

Thank you Frogtape!

(a swag gift from Haven)

Using a paint pen, I traced over the image.

It's that easy!

Here is a shot from inside the jar.

I repeated the step using another image for the backside.

Because glass and photos never play well....

 I just stuffed a red shirt inside.

I chose a Razorback for my husband.

His birthday is coming soon and this will be a gift for his office.

The possibilities are endless.

How cute would a monogram be!

Because it's for my sweetie's birthday, I filled it to the top with his favorite candies.

The image gets a bit lost with all of the candies but trust me,

It's cuter in person ;)

The jar came from Wal Mart.

Now. I know what you are thinking...

A bow?

Really?

Coming from the south, everything needs a bow!

Sorry hunny!

Now go Hog wild and paint something ;)
