Being the Pinterest addict that I am, I have seen many different DIY projects that I will eventually work my way through!
One that really interested me is using nail varnish to personalise glasses! The walk through that I originally found said that they are dishwasher proof and very durable - got to be worth a try, right?
At my last trip to one of the various pound shops, I picked up a set of 6 stacker glasses for (you guessed it) £1! One did get broken when I tried to save a spider.. So I have 5 to work with.
I picked out6 5 nail varnishes that I liked the colours of and some cotton buds.
I picked out
It was very therapeutic and had minimal mess. The only thing that got covered in nail varnish that wasn't the glass was my hands!
I did the splodges in sections I didn't get covered!
This was the end result - I am happy!
I also tried this with shot glasses - I painted the bottoms of each glass - how cool does this look!?
So tried and tested - total success! Definitely not dishwasher safe though.. I tried it and the dishwasher removed half of the dots. I tested scrubbing with a sponge and hot water and the dots don't budge :)
HAND WASH ONLY!

This looks so cool! I've seen a few people doing this, but didn't know how. I'm a little bit of a pinterest addict too, so I'll have to add this to my list of projects.
ReplyDeleteThank you! It was so fun and literally took me about 15 minutes to do all of them :)
DeleteI just love this idea and am going to share with my kids. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteNo problem! Let me know when you try it out - I would love to see it!
Deleteoh wow this is so cute, I did think they would not be dishwasher as most nail polish comes out at the extreme of temperature. I love the look of them might try it too
ReplyDeleteThank you! I think the dishwasher might have worked if I had put it on a lower temperature but hand washing works just fine :)
