well honestly for me not really coz im quite the craft lover :)
but i did use a glass i did not want an i had a practice, its all very easy if u sort of dont think about it an just do it( if u know what i mean) after i did 60 i tried doing bride an groom ones also bestman an bridesmaid, lmao icould not do it an gave up coz i was thinking to much an being too picky.
but yeah its good fun i got fh having a go an he was good lol but not very straight hehehe

if anyone wants any info on what paint i used an any help please feel free to ask. oh lol for anyone thats interested ill put the paint name an instructions when i get home a bit later, im on my way out the door. ill give instructions coz they dont give good ones on the paint, plus ill give tips :)

ok u can use any glass u like!
the paint i used for the black outline is
Pebeo Vitrea 160 Outliners
and the paint i used to fill the hear red is Pebeo Vitrea 160 Gloss 45ml
the site i got the paints from is www.jovian.com.au (http://www.jovian.com.au)
its cheap paint. its ment to be water proof so the glasses can be washed.
ok u just decide what u want on it(have a practice on a diffrent glass frist)
then after u have done what u wantleave to dry for 24 hours,then u chuck them in the oven evenly spaced for 35 mins with oven on 150. then take em out an there done. tip if ur doing hearts an filling them with colour let the outline dry for a bit befor u add the colour stops the colours mixing an going horrible :)
