Patriotic Dollar Store Wine Glasses Using Etching & Vinyl

I love a pretty wine glass, so why not make up your own for a fun occasion, like 4th of July?  So grab some vinyl, Dollar Store wine glasses, etching liquid, and let's get started!

This post also contains affiliate links and I will be compensated if you make a purchase after clicking on my links.  Various companies provided me with some product to create this project.  The opinions I share are solely my own.

Check out my video to see the full tutorial in detail with lots of extra tips!

Start off with your supplies of wine glasses, a star die, Etchall Dip N Etch, and StyleTechCraft Transparent Glitter Vinyl.  I did red, silver and blue for a patriotic look, but you can make yours any color you want!

First your etch your glasses.  I placed the glass in a plastic container and let it sit for 15 minutes to etch the stem and a little of the bottom of the glass.  It really gives the glass a sophisticated look!  Read the instructions on the dip 'n etch liquid for full details.

Just look how cool this glasses look etched!

Next, use a small die to cut out start from the vinyl.  I found this small die set that has 5 stars on it.  One pass through a die cut machine and you get 5 stars.  You can even use a punch to get stars, or free hand cut them. 

Add your cut out stars to your transfer tape to make it really easy to apply to your glass.  Make sure to add the stars upside down and peal off the sticker backing with your weeding tool!!

Rub the stars from the transfer tape to the glasses and fill it up as much as you want.  I added about 10 of each color of start, so about 30 stars total on each glass.  make sure to rub them really well so they do not come off.  The vinyl is water resistant and can be hand washed for many uses!  See the video to learn how to transfer the stars with some extra tips!

I made my glasses with a patriotic theme, but you can make them for any time for year or event.  Make them the colors of your wedding, hearts for valentines day, shamrocks for st. Patty;s day, trees for Christmas, etc.  The sky is the limit on idea for this fun and easy DIY project!

What colors and shapes will you make on your glasses?

Dollar Tree Etched Shamrock Beer Stein

Need a fun and easy way to make something for St. Patrick's Day?  Look how cute this beer stein (or mug) looks with a simple etching of a shamrock on it.  Add your favorite beer, or green colored beer, for a festive St. Patty's Day celebration!!!

Here is the video on how easy this is to make, even if you do not have a shamrock die, use a heart!!

I got the stein or mug at the Dollar Tree.  They have them for sale for a $1 and are perfect to etch!!  I then used a heart die to create the shamrock shape in the Etchall Vinyl (see video for full details).

Apply the vinyl to the mug and then apply the Etchall Etching Creme and let it sit for 15 minutes to do its magic!!

Wipe off the etching creme and place back into the container, it is reusable!!!

Clean off the mug in the sick with water and then peal off the vinyl.  Dry it off and you have a fun Shamrock Stein ready for all the fun festivities!!!

Halloween Trick or Treat Candy Bar with Allergy Safe Treats!

The kids and I love Halloween, so we decided to make a treat bar by the front door to let the kids in the area come pick out treats, candy and non candy treats for the Teal Pumpkin Project, and the best part is they get to choose what they want in their bags because everything is already separated out for them in the tilt bins!

This post also contains affiliate links and I will be compensated if you make a purchase after clicking on my links.  Various companies provided me with some product to create this project.  The opinions I share are solely my own.

Check out our video below!

The Deflecto tilt bins are perfect for helping to sorting out items, and even better for the kids to see what types of treats and candies there are for them to pick out!

I even put in some non food treat for the kids with food allergies in the form of glow in the dark vampire teeth.  Such a great treat to pass out to kids that only cost $1 at Dollar Tree.  They have a TON of non candy little treats that you can pass out to help keep all kinds inclusive for Halloween.  Plus even the kids without food allergies love the non candy treats too!

I made a Teal Pumpkin for the Teal Pumpkin Project to show that we do have allergy safe items at our house and also on this candy bar.

Here is a video on how I made this teal glitter glam pumpkin.

If you want to learn more about the Teal Pumpkin Project check out the info below.

The kids love the candy bar and can't wait for their friends to come over and pick out some fun treats, but in the mean time Cat is going to dig in and have a few of her own!

What will you put into your Halloween Treat bar?

Happy Halloween from our family to yours!
