We had a break in the rain yesterday afternoon so I was able to get outside and etch the glasses. Thanks to some practice, I got all 15 done without any mistakes. Each glass had a beach umbrella and the name in a fun font. I like them. Chris likes them. we're good. It's pretty impossible to take photos of etched glasses but there are 15 in total. The hardest part of today was removing all the tape and vinyl without breaking any of the glasses. I packed them up in the original packing and added a name card so they will be easy to distribute. Here they are, ready to go almost 2 weeks early! This is a great affordable gift. I'm sure I'll do this again. They would be cool for a holiday gift, wedding party gifts or to celebrate a specific event. I found the glasses on Amazon and they are a very nice quality. I even had time left to get all of my deying ready for today. This brings back memories! The cool part is that I don't have to photograph and list any of these items.
Today is dyeing day!
