Here is what you will need to get started:<\/h4>\n\n- A plain glass vase<\/li>\n
- Glass etching cream \u2013 I used Armour Etch<\/li>\n
- Stencil \u2013 Armour #12-7042<\/li>\n
- Rubber gloves<\/li>\n
- Glass cleaner<\/li>\n
- masking tape<\/li>\n
- paper towels<\/li>\n
- scissors<\/li>\n
- Running water<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Use the glass cleaner to clean off any fingerprints or grease that may be on your vase. With the scissors cut out a rose design and frosted backing sheet from the stencil #12-7042. Position the stencil on the vase with the tacky blue side touching the glass. Secure the stencil to the vase with masking tape.<\/p>\n
Using the wooden stick that is enclosed, transfer the stencil to the glass surface using firm, even strokes. When the stencil is in place, remove the masking tape and peel back the clear top sheet.<\/p>\n
Reapply the masking tape around the entire stencil. This is to keep the etching cream from hitting that part of the glass that you don’t want etched. Wear the plastic gloves when you work with the etching cream to protect your hands from exposure.<\/p>\n
Apply a thick layer of etching cream to the stencil and let it sit for 60 seconds. That’s right, it only takes 1 minute (60 seconds) to work. Make sure to stay within the taped area. After a minute, wash off the etching cream with luke warm water and your vase is ready.<\/p>\n
Remove all of the remaining stencil pieces and masking tape and clean the vase, again, using a glass cleaner.<\/p>\n
This is one of the prettiest rose vases I have made. It may be a little hard to see the actual design, but it is very beautiful and delicate looking.<\/p>\n
