ReplyDeleteLearning how to etch glass can be a fun a hobby to take up for fun or as a way to supplement your income. The easiest and most common way to etch glass is to use etching cream. The cream is painted onto the object with a foam brush and it eats away at the top layer of glass to leave a textured and frosted surface behind. If you wish to do a detailed glass etch the cream may prove to be limited. The other way to glass etch is to use some sort of rotary tool. These small tools are packed with high RPMs which can gouge the glass. If you have a good design, a powerful rotary tool and a steady hand then you can etch glass yourself.

For my mom’s birthday last year, my sister and I honored her with a customized engraved glass from Unique Custom Products in Colorado. I can’t begin to explain how happy we were with the quality of the print. It was excellent. They paid attention to the finest detail and Mom is so elated with her gift that she flaunts it to all her guests. I definitely recommend them to you. Check their site for their amazing and unique products. http://www.stampworldonline.com/category.aspx?categoryID=426
