napkin attach
Cut out the motif: Carefully cut out the desired motif from a napkin . For this technique, you will need only the top, printed layer of the napkin.
Prepare the glass: Coat the glass evenly with napkin varnish. Make sure that the layer is not too thick to avoid bubbles.
Place the motif: Carefully place the cut-out and top printed layer of napkin on the glass and press it down lightly. Use a soft brush or your fingers to smooth out any creases.
napkin varnish apply: Coat the motif again with napkin varnish. Make sure you work from the center outwards to avoid creases and air bubbles. Allow the paint to dry completely.
Achieving frosty effects
Apply frost effect paint: For a frosty effect, you can first dab the glass with frost effect paint. This special effect paint creates an icy look on the glass. You can intensify the frosty effect by tinting the paint with a colour concentrate
Dabbing and sprinkling: Apply the frost effect paint to the glass with a paint sponge using light, dabbing movements. This will give you the desired texture. Then sprinkle over some mica flakes while the paint is still wet.
Decorate and use the glass
Leave to dry: Wait until the glass is completely dry. This can take a few hours, depending on the thickness of the layers applied.
Fill and decorate: Now you can fill the jar however you like. Treats, chains of lights or LED tea lights are ideal. Finally, decorate the jar with pretty ribbons, sprinkles and small jingles, to complete the design.
