Glass monograms

[icyblue.livejournal.com]

I know that awhile ago, glass etching was the popular craft in this community. I guess it just took me a long time to jump on that bandwagon. :) My friend Anna just moved into a new apartment, so I wanted to get her a little housewarming gift. So I bought four glasses and a bedside carafe (a jug that you put water in with a cup that serves as both a glass to drink from and a lid for the carafe). And with a little inspiration from Martha, I decided to monogram them. I used Copperplate Bold text.




If you're interested in learning how to do this yourself, the link to Martha's site gives you great instructions. :) It was an easy and fun craft! Now I'm just itching to etch everything glass in sight (though I'm restraining myself). :)
