Stained Glass (Gallery Glass)

Stained glass flower!
So for a while I had left over glass sheets that came from old picture frames, and I didn't know what to do with them.
I did some exploring, looked through pinterest and saw that I can make my own stained glass (kinda). 

Things you'll need:
  • Gallery Glass Paint (I bought a whole pack from Hobby Lobby so I could have a variety of colors ).
  • Glass 
  • Paper/ Picture
  • Q- Tips
  • Small Cup of water


This is what the paint box looks like.


I wanted to make my own sketch, so I did. 
You could easily print off a picture from the internet if you did not want to draw your own! 

When using the black paint you really need to have a steady hand. When I messed up I just wet the Q-tip dabbed it on a paper towel so it is not soaked and cleaned up the edges. 
It takes about 8 hours to completely dry. 
When using the color paint you have to basically pick the paint up with the black tool and then spread it around evenly. 



The finished product!
I think it looks really good for being paint.
I got to get a stand so I can display it nicely.
