What is the best way to paint on glass bottles?

I've tried spray paint, paint brushes with acrylic paint but that doesn't turn out to good.

    There is actually a paint made for glass. It's translucent, made a candle holder at a vacation bible school. This dang auto correct is getting annoying....the holder was a slightly chipped canning jar glass of course, tea light to light it up and a wire bail made to carry. Painted it in stripes....it's a good bet I'll find it when I clear out her estate....


    a dedicated hobby shop might carry it.

    Check out Pinterest! They often have really great DIY projects on there. Try typing in painting glass jars. That may help! Good Luck!

  • Before you paint you need to use sandpaper to make it course so the paint can adhere.

    glass made for paint is the best. You can also add some color to decoupage glue to give it a tinting rather than paint job
