Painted Champagne Flute
A.V. Perkins
Materials + Tools
- glass champagne flute
- paintbrush
- glass paint
- disposable plate
1: Paint + Dry
First, gather materials and make sure your glass champagne flute is clean and dry (Image 1). Then, add a drop of glass paint to a disposable plate or paint palette. Dip the end of a paintbrush handle into the glass paint and gently dab the handle onto the glass to create a unique pattern (Image 2). Be sure to avoid the rim of the glass completely. Set aside to dry (Image 3). Tip: Once the glass paint is dry, bake the flute to ensure a longer-lasting design. Follow the instructions on the glass paint bottle.
