Snowman Cups

These cups didn't turn out quite as I expected, but they're still cute and quirky and would make a fun gift for a teacher or coach. I filled them with marshmallows and wrapped them in clear cellophane, complete with a white bow.

I think these are the cutest thing ever! EVER! I can't imagine them turning out any better! Could you please share what kind of paint you used. Seems like every time I do a project like this, my image washes off. I LOVE them!

Hi Debbie. It's paint that is specifically for glass or porcelain items. The brand is Porcelaine by Pebeo and it's available in most art and craft stores. You do have to bake it in the oven to set it properly.
I think there is also a glass medium you can buy that mixes in with ordinary acrylic paint. Mind you, it's been a long time since I did any acrylic painting so things might have changed.
Cheers,
Beccy
