Have you ever wanted to know how to paint a Wine glass for yourself or someone as a Gift without the worry that they would always have to hand wash it? Well, there is an easy solution to make it dishwasher safe, use Acrylic Enamel Paint, clear coat it and bake it in your oven! They are easy to use, water based and harden to create a glossy finish. Brands like FolkArt enamel paint are usable on both glass and ceramic and are dishwasher safe once cured!
Time: Active 30-60 minutes depending on you! Total 26 hours.
Supplies Needed: shopping link
Painters tape any brand will do
Rubbing Alcohol
Folk Art Enamel Paints
Fine Detail Marker if you want to draw borders

To Fire: place it in a cool oven on a cookie tray, then turn the oven on to 350ºF, after the oven reaches 350ºF allow your project to bake for 30 minutes (or longer if the paint you bought requires)!
