Painting Glass

[antoniotime.livejournal.com]

I've been collecting mason jars for a while because I love using them for glasses.  I've decided that while their shape is beautiful, their color is a little lacking.  So I'm going to paint them, but I'm not sure what sort of paint to use.  The paint would both have to be safe-ish (would rather it not have lead in it even though it's just the outside that's getting painted) and be resilient enough not to come when run through the dishwasher. 

Does anyone have any suggestions on what kind of paint?

Thank you!

You read the title; it's the new year, and we're celebrating it! France has gotten into the wine again, America's being his usual overly-cheerful self, and England's just pissed off at everybody!

I tried posting this video as embedded and it wouldn't let me, I hope this link works. I need some help with my sewing machine, I can't seem to work out what's wrong. The thread is all bunching up, but I have fiddled with the tension and all the settings and nothing seems to work. Anyone know?
