DIY Glass Tumblers

I have been wanting to create these glass tumblers for awhile now, but haven't had the time or need to. I finally made a little time and I am glad I did; they were a fun Friday afternoon craft.

 I searched and searched for the glasses I wanted. I didn't want to spend much so I first checked the Dollar Tree. No luck. They have carried them before but currently do not. I eventually found them at Wal-Mart for 99 cents each.. score!! I used my roommate's paint since I didn't need much. They were all bought at the local Hobby Lobby. I used q-tips to add dots to the glasses. 

First starting with dots farther apart, and slowly added more and more until the bottom half of the glasses were covered. 









After I let them sit and dry for awhile, I baked them in the oven for 30 minutes at 350 degrees to seal the paint. I'm happy with how they turned out, I'll definitely be making more!



And I stuck to my word... made four more today! I now have 8 total, 4 sets of 2 with different color combinations. Don't be afraid to try new colors!
