Handmade gifts such as unique, original art on Wine Glasses or on Mason Jars are very much treasures.

You will use acrylic paint and then you will learn how to set the paint and put a sealant on the glass to make it stable and beautiful. It does not require many materials and the supplies are reasonably priced. You may use the glassware you already have on hand for the workshop. This creative work is easy and fun to do.
