Yes. I said PEEP WEEK!!! (hahaha! It just makes me smile saying that!)
I am devoting all of next week to all things Peep related! Ooooohhhhh! I am soooooooo excited!!!!!
But today, I want to share with you my Etched Easter Apothecary Jar.
I have always wanted to try my hand an etched glass. And when I found this glass jar for under $4, I knew this would be the perfect jar to experiment with!!
So I asked my friend very nicely if she could cut me an easter image out of her cricut :)
I applied the vinyl bunny outline to my glass jar and found some etching cream at the local craft store. I just "followed" the directions and let it works its magic.
But. If you look closely at my bunny, you can see a couple of "water marks". Yeah. The directions said to apply the cream in an up and down motion with your brush. I might not have "followed" the directions very closely. Oops. But in person you have to look pretty close to notice it so hopefully no one does :)
The next time I use etching cream I will follow the directions a bit more closely. But until then...I still LOVE my Etched Bunny Apothecary Jar!!
