The Simply Sunday Challenge this week over at Getting Cricky with K. Andrews is a “Give Thanks” project. I made these DIY etched glass candle holder’s to give to a few of my girlfriends who can really appreciate a good craft. I’m thankful for our good conversations and laughs together.
This was my first attempt at etching glass and I really like how they turned out. Looks like it’s right out of a Pottery Barn Magazine, right? Much cheaper too!
I etched the first letter of their last name using Gypsy Font. I stamped a Thankful sentiment and attached the tag with a button and raffia.
Thanks for looking and Happy Thanksgiving!

November 22, 2011 at 2:14 amCute Cute Holly! I love glass etching! I made my bro glasses for their kitchen last year for his birthday! He threw his other glasses away and just use the ones I made him:) It’s so fun! Your project does look like it jumped straight out of a Pottery Barn Catalog:) Nice job! Jill♥
