How to Pass on Boring Glass~ Give Your Vase a FUN Makeover
Clean your glass vase/container before painting. Using White Lightning from Dixie Belle Paint Company. It comes in a crystal form and is mixed with water. It removes all the dirt, grime and anything that could possibly cause your painted finish to fail.
Paint your glass surface with one coat of Slick Stick (bonding primer). It just guarantees the paint will stick to any slick surface.
Then you will want to use one coat of your favorite color of chalk mineral paint by Dixie Belle. Do Dodson used Bunker Hill Blue and Buttercream for this project.
Immediately after applying the Iron Patina Paint with the sponge, (while it’s still wet) spray over the painted surface with the green patina spray. If the Iron Patina Paint is dry when you apply the patina spray, the activation process will not occur. It’s important that it is wet!
After you have the amount of rust you want on your project, you can seal your rusty crusty master piece with Gator Hide (:
