Wine Glass Painting Tips

Tape a printed image on the inside of the glass to use as a guide.

Lay down newspaper or cardboard box where you plan to paint.

Use q tips or even fingers for textured paint application.

Use rubbing alcohol and a paper towel to clean up mistakes.

Allow one color to dry before painting another color next to it so your paints don’t smear together.

Use a blow dryer to speed up the drying process.

Curing Instructions

The final step in the process is to cure or harden the paint on the hand painted wine glasses. There are two methods for doing this:

• Method 1: Air Dry. Let the hand painted wine glasses air dry for 21 days.

• Method 2: Bake in the Oven. Put the hand painted wine glasses on a cookie sheet and place on a low rack in the oven. Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Bake the hand painted wine glasses for 30 minutes. Turn the oven off and allow them to cool naturally with the oven before removing them. IMPORTANT: YOU MUST PUT THE HAND PAINTED WINE GLASSES IN THE OVEN BEFORE YOU TURN IT ON TO PREVENT THE GLASSES FROM BREAKING.

Once the paint has cured on your wine glass designs, they are top-rack dishwasher safe.
