And how to make wedding glasses with your own hands using decorative glass painting? Firstly, for this you need to purchase special acrylic paints, a contour brush (preferably very thin), toothpicks, cotton swabs, alcohol for wiping glass, a solvent. Since you need to make wedding glasses with your own hands very carefully, you should first practice applying the selected pattern to paper. You can even “try on” it on a wine glass by sticking a folded draft inside the glass bowl. And it is best to make a stencil of the picture and simply circle it on the glass with a felt-tip pen. Just before work, you should wipe the glass with alcohol - degrease it so that the paint lays evenly. Next, you need to draw a contour - this is in the case of the presence of monograms, stems and other small thin details in the drawing. After the contour has dried, you can apply the entire pattern. If suddenly something went wrong and an urgent need to fix some detail - toothpicks, cotton buds will help with this. Water-based paint is easy to wipe off with a cotton swab dipped in water, otherwise a thinner is used.

5. Decorate tape with a bow, ribbon, decorate with beaded threads or rhinestones.

Decoupage wedding glasses

Or you can even turn ordinary wedding glasses into a masterpiece of art. How to make such beauty yourself? That's how. You should take beads, beads, rhinestones, shells and glue them on the glass of the wine glass, after applying acrylic paint from a spray can to the glass.

Its edges can be decorated with silver beads by gluing them to the glass. A good option is to use decoupage elements in decorating wine glasses, for example, flowers, shells, starfish or pebbles made of polymer clay. Details of the drawing should be done separately according to the instructions attached to the clay. After drying or firing - depending on the qualitative composition of the material - the part should be glued to the glass. It is not forbidden to include glasses in the decoration process and decorate them with ribbons, beads, bows.
