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?

DIY Etched & Vinyl Dollar Tree Vase

I got the amazing chance to teach a class at the MKNG festival hosting by AFCI in New York in September 2018.  I had a fun filled class where we etched vases, added vinyl to them, and then added in foiled flower in the vase.

Various companies provided me with some product to create this project.  The opinions I share are solely my own.

Here is a video on how to make this fun vase!

It is really simple, I took a Dollar Tree glass vase and added vinyl strips to the glass and then added the etching creme.

Let the creme sit for 15 minutes, and then add it back to the container since it reusable!!  Just look at the etching!

I then added some beautiful glitter Style Tech Craft vinyl to the top of the vase in neutral colors to make this vase useful year round!

We then made some flowers using Rinea foiled paper to go into the vases.  These are super easy to use and so fun to make!  I used Supertite White School Glue to hold the flowers together and it works great!!  Check out this video to see how to make these fun Rinea foiled flowers!

I also put real flowers into the vase as well, it looks great any way to use it!
