How to Etch Glasses! It's a Quick, Easy Craft that Anyone Can Do!

My mom and I recently went to her friends house to etch glass. I wasn't sure how this was going to work, but it was surprisingly easy. All you need are some glasses, stencils, masking tape, foam paint brushes, and Armour Etch.

First clean your glasses. Tape on the stencil of your choice (I chose a mustache). Apply the Armour Etch with a foam paint brush. Be sure to dab the paste evenly and thoroughly on the glass, so that the Armour Etch doesn't get under the stencil. Let sit for 5 minutes and apply a second coat. Let sit for another 5 minutes (this gives a darker, more etched look). Remove the tape/stencil and wash off with cold water.

Letting the paste do it's magic
Don't they look awesome!     
Me, my mommy, and our awesome glasses!
