My daughter-in-law Marcy is at my home visiting from Georgia. I love it when we can get together. She always wants to do some kind of craft project when we get together. She knows how to make me happy just like my girls do. I always tell her to pin some fun projects and we’ll do them. Well….my project today is a project she requested. She saw this pin on Pinterest . But she wanted to do hand painted wine glasses instead of drinking glasses. I was game! I have this really cool dollar store called Dollar Zone. They had some really fun wine glasses for a 1.00 so we each bought four. I pulled some paint out of my stash and we set to work.
( Sorry, I still don’t have the hang of taking a picture with one hand. That’s one of my goals I need to work on.)
Once all your dots are in place you take your glasses and put them in a cool oven and turn the oven on to 350 degrees and heat up for 30 minutes and then let them cool in the oven to heat set the paint. Wallla, you now have some super fun wine glasses.
My daughter in law Marcy has just signed up for Stella and Dot and had asked me to have a party when she came home. I am not a fan of hosting parties but really wanted to support her. So my party was today. I thought it was the perfect time to make these glasses and serve at my party tonight. Here is a picture of the glasses with the food I served.

UPDATE: I wanted to share I have washed my glasses in the dishwasher and they seem to be dishwasher safe. 🙂

I love them they are so pretty! Great job 🙂
I love these! So want to try to make my own!
The wine glasses turned out cute!
I love it what a great idea, I may have to stop at my dollar store and find some wine glasses to paint myself. BTW the wine you have on the picture is my favorite wine to drink. I always have a bottle at hom.
Ooh Barb – these are fabulous! Do you mind if I give you a shout out on my FB page? xxx Nat

Those are so pretty! It looks like you have a lovely kitchen too! Have a great week and thank you so much for stopping by.
After heating in oven, are the glasses dishwasher safe?
These are too cute! How do these hold up to washing? I would assume you need to hand wash and don't let them stay submerged too long. Thanks so much for sharing on Tout It Tuesday! Hope to see you tomorrow.
Very cute!
Did you use a washable paint like FolkArt Enamels or Martha Stewart Multi Surface craft paint? these paints are washable. Just to let you konw
Hi Anonymous, I did use craft paint. I have washed mine several times in the dishwasher and they seem to be dishwasher safe. I believe the process of heating them in the oven cures them. Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment. Barb
I was about to ask the same question! I'm glad they seem to be dishwasher safe, that is so convenient! 🙂
Saw this at the 2012 Pinfest at White Lights on Wednesday. Looks like a fun project and would be a great way to give a personalized gift.
Love this project!(P.S. wanted to let you know that I originally saw this http://www.repiny.com/pin-163.html on stumbleupon 🙁 I decided to use google to find the actual creator of the project and found you 🙂
