I use vinyl from Joann's to make a stencil with my Cricut. (Be sure to cut it out as a mirror image so that it looks backwards to you for the bottom of the baking pans. For mirrors or other items you can skip this step) I use transfer tape to pick up all the pieces of the stencil at once.
I placed my stencil on the bottom of the glass baking pan.
I peeled off the transfer tape and pushed out all the air bubbles in the vinyl.
Then I put the etching cream on. (Using gloves is recommended when using etching cream) It takes a healthy amount of cream. I left it on for about 30 seconds and then scraped the excess cream of and put it back into the jar.
Next rinse the cream off with warm water.
After I rinsed the cream off my daughter peeled off the vinyl.
Voila! You have a personalized gift!
The great thing about these is that people will know who these pans belong too.
The wedding card was a file I got from The Cutting Cafe. If you'd like to see more on that you can click here.
There is so many possibilities with glass etching. Here is a few more projects I have done following the steps above.
