Etched Snowflake Glasses How-To
1. Clean glasses before starting. Measure and cut 4-by-4-inch piece of contact paper. Using circle cutter, cut out circle slightly smaller than bottom of glass.
2. Lay square with circle cutout sticky side up and center to bottom of glass. Place snowflake sticker in center of circle. Using bone folder, press down on each edge. Using a paint brush and wearing gloves for protection, paint on etching cream, making sure to get every crease and crevice. Leave on for five minutes.
3. Wash off etching cream with sponge and running water. Peel off sticker and contact paper.
