So ive been on the net again!!! Lol and ive found some etching cream for my gumball machine but got to thinking what about glass favours such as champagne flutes??? All you need is the cream which I got for just under £7, a champagne flute 50p and a stencil of choice for the glass. The cream has some form of acid in it which causes the etching to the glass and is permanent. Apparently the cream can be re-used if scraped off and added back to the jar but not sure of this and not sure how many glasses a 3oz bottle would make. If making around 100 glasses this could cost as little as £57 or how about personalising a glass vase for mob or mog, a glass tankard for fog or fob. Hope this is useful for someone xx

Just had a look at how to make stencils and they can be made with sticky back plastic and a craft knife and printed template taped on top xx

Lana I ordered the cream off the bay of e hun and im making my own stencils by tracing what I want on to sticky back plastic by using a craft knife bit like a scalpel. You apply the stencil put the cream on for a few minutes then wash off thats it down its like an acid that burns the pattern to the glass theres a tutorial on tube of you that you can watch hun xxxx
