Today, Seth and I started a new project! I thought it would be neat to start working on decor for the reception, and I thought of making custom water pitchers! Not only was it pretty inexpensive but it repurposes an old wine bottle in the process! We decided to etch the glass to make them cute and unique.
First we scored these beautiful cobalt blue glass bottles off craigslist, 12 for only 12 dollars! After a quick soak in hot water, the labels came off easily!
We dried the bottles and created handmade stencils (stickers and vinyl cut-outs) and taped them to the bottle. Then we covered the remaining glass portion with a fun craft item called Armour Etch! After waiting for the cream to set (about 5 minutes) we rinsed the bottles and removed the stencils! They are turning out really well, I'm excited to make some more tomorrow!
Any suggestions of what stencils we should design next??
