Create beautiful Waterproof Painted Glass, glassware, and more when you follow this DIY tutorial from The Birch Cottage.
Ever since I shared the idea of how to spray paint a glass vase, I’ve really been wanting to find a way to paint the inside of the vase and have it be waterproof.
Because, wouldn’t it be lovely if you could have beautiful color gleaming through the shiny glass? I think there’s just something almost glamorous and expensive looking about that style.

So, I did some searching online – Google, Pinterest and even YouTube. I found a few methods – some worked, some not so much. But the one method that kept jumping out at me involved using acrylic craft paint, acetone nail polish remover and curing the glass in the oven.
The results? Perfect! Beautiful! Gorgeous! Glamorous! And maybe even expensive looking!
