Frosted Glass Spray
Frosted glass spray will allow you to make some great creations! Keep your glass clear and frost a design or keep the design clear and frost the glass...works either way with different results. It comes in a spray bottle and can be found in most craft stores.
What You Will Need
A bottle of frosted glass spray
A clear jar, vase or item that you want to frost
Stickers
Ribbon (optional)
Razor blade
We started with a small clear jar that had a lid. We put stickers (circles and letters) on our jar. Smooth out any wrinkles in the sticker. Wherever there is a sticker, the glass will stay clear. Be sure to press the edges of the stickers on well. We took the jar outside to begin spraying on our frost. Several thin layers of spray works the best (if you try to put on all the frost at once, the paint will run and not look good). Allow about 15 minutes between coats of spray. The more spray that you apply, the darker the frost will be. Once our jar was sprayed well, we let it dry completely (about 1 hour). Then we peeled off the stickers. If some frosted paint goes under your stickers, just use a razor blade to gently scrap it off of the glass. We then added some ribbon to the top of the jar and filled the jar with M & M candies. Our project was done in about two hours! You can frost lots of glass objects. Vases, candle votives, mirrors, trinket boxes, cups, glasses, plates (frost the bottom of plate so that food doesn't touch the frost), pitcher, ornaments, bottles, serving trays...you get the idea. If it is glass...you can frost it!
The Opposite Works Too!
You can put a stencil on your glass project and spray your frost inside of the stencil. This will allow your project to remain the clear glass and your design to be frosted.
