Martini glass with some pizzaz!

Used vintage papers on the outside of this glass. Painted the bottom with black acrylic paint then gave it a coat of liquid floor wax. Can be filled with paper clips if using in the home office or candy or if you sew, a great place to store pins and needles. Digital background texture courtesy of Kim Klassen.

Martini glass given a new life!

I made many of these and tried to make them all different. Used vintage papers from a very old music magazine. The papers are adhered with Golden's Medium on the outside. I ran a gold pen around the top rim to finish it off. Painted the bottom with black acrylic paint then gave it a coat of clear floor wax. I was inspired by Anna Corba.
I made the mask for displaying these two pictures using B K Swirl brushes.

Hand beaded trimmed martini glass.

Used vintage papers on the outside of this glass. I hand beaded the musical themed trim. I was inspired by Anna Corba's book and dvd. I just might use it on my sewing desk for safety pins.

Upcycled whimsical martini glass.

Oh this was so enjoyable to do. I was inspired by Anna Corba's Interactive DVD Book labelled "Vintage Paper Crafts with Anna Corba". I used vintage papers from the early 1900's. This would look lovely in sewing room used for buttons or pins, in the office used for paper clips or as she suggested to use for a candy dish. The paper is on the outside which means the inside can easily be cleaned. Will show the others over the course of the next year.
