Update: So many peopled asked for a tutorial I made one, check it out!
I love my dremel. My husband got it for me for Christmas a few years ago. I had actually never considered it as a tool for my wish list, but it’s been really fun! Every once in a while I like to play around with a different option, or use. This time I decided to try etching glass with it. It was really fun! I decided to use my two favorite flowers as my template. Cherry Blossoms and Calla Lillies. I think they turned out really well! I used a diamond point bit set to create these. And the possibilities are endless! Holiday themes, birthday themes, wedding themes, etc…!

Aw this is cute! I just started doing glass etching with the glass etch stuff and I live it! If you have time come link up on Tuesday to Handmade Tuesdays @ http://www.ladybug-blessings.com

I’ll come over and link it up! I have used the etching cream as well as the frosted spray paint and I like all three ways for etching. They each have a different effect so really it depends on the project your working on what you might want to try.

Very cool. I love the cherry blossoms. Was it challenging to do? It looks like you need a steady hand to work with something so small.

I do too! After living in Japan Cherry Blossoms will always be special to me! It actually wasn’t too bad. Next time I make one I’ll show you how I did it! But I picked a design that would be okay if it went off a bit, the tree.

My husband got me mine, I never would have thought of it, but I love it!

My husband recently bought a dremel tool and I would love to try this but it looks like something I would totally ruin…can’t wait to see the tutorial when you’re able to post one!
Ashlee
I’ll try to get that up soon! It’s really not hard at all, and you can pick up some cheap glass at DI to practice on.

I actually used the Calla Lilly one as a wedding shower favor! It was really easy and fun to do!

BTW I love your jewelry, but I want a CAKE not a cupcake one! They are all so pretty though! I have a good friend trying to adopt right now and the support you give to families trying to adopt is wonderful!
