  • Painted Glass Platter
  • I used Martha Stewart Glass Paint and a Paisley Adhesive Silkscreen, also from the Martha line.
  • Step 1: Adhere the Silkscreen to the glass platter.
  • Step 2: Apply the Glass Paint to the Silkscreen, using a foam pouncer.
  • Step 3: Allow to cure, either in your oven, or you can air dry.
  • So easy! You can get further instructions on my blog post.

My Living Room

This is my Living Room, which recently got a makeover, thanks to Sherwin Williams. I'm so thrilled with the Charcoal Gray walls, so much better than the red that was there before. I have a before pic on my blog, if you want to see the total transformation. http://www.graphicsfairy-diy.com/2012/10/my-...

    know! The paint does come off with soap, water and a scrubby sponge, so no harm done to the glass itself.
