Transforming scrap glass into a whimsical melted snowman ornament is a fun and simple craft perfect for the winter season. With just a few tools and materials, you can create a unique decoration to add charm to your holiday tree or gift to someone special!

Begin by peeling the plastic film off one side of your acrylic round. This will be the front of your ornament. Next, apply a small amount of SnowTex to the round and spread it evenly to create a snowy base. Put this aside to dry. 

To create your melted snowman, start by attaching a tracer to a piece of white sheet glass, and trace the two snowman shapes. Put on gloves and safety glasses for protection. Use a pair of wheeled nippers to carefully cut around the snowman shapes, taking small, irregular bits as you go. Next, use a honing stone to gently soften the edges all the way around. Wipe off any remaining tracer lines.

You should end up with two irregular pieces of white sheet glass and a white, round/flat gem that will serv...

This reindeer project is the perfect blend of painting and glass embellishments, making it an eye-catching addition to your holiday decor. Starting with a simple painted base, you’ll bring your reindeer to life with layers of color and detail. Then, take it to the next level by adding vitrigraph glass antlers, clear glass, beads, and a glossy resin finish.

Begin by applying a base coat of white paint to your canvas, ensuring full coverage, and dry it using a heat tool. Next, position your reindeer tracer on the canvas, tape it in place, and slide a sheet of graphite paper underneath. Use a stylus to trace only the reindeer’s head.

Once traced, paint the reindeer’s head with a base coat of Rusted Pipe paint. After drying with a heat tool, apply a second coat for an even finish. Reposition your tracer and trace the facial details of the reindeer.

Next, I’ll paint the ears using Warm Beige. For the bangs, I’ll apply another coat of Rusted Pipe and blend in white paint to create hig...

Begin by painting the background and sides of your canvas with a coat of Metallic Pearl paint. Use smooth, even strokes in one direction to ensure a beautiful, uniform metallic shine. Dry the paint thoroughly with a heat tool.

Next, apply a layer of Enchanted Magenta over the Metallic Pearl, again pulling the paint in one direction. This will create a vibrant, shimmering pink effect for your background. Dry again.

Grab your tracer, tape it to your canvas, place graphite paper underneath, and trace the ornament with a stylus. 

Start by painting the ornament with a base coat of Primary Red. Use a heat tool to dry it completely before applying a second coat. Once the second coat is dry, apply a layer of Me...

Vintage Christmas ornaments have a timeless charm, and this project will help you capture that magic with a beautiful blue ornament! It’s a simple and fun way to add a festive touch to your holiday decor. We'll be incorporating lots of fun glass goodies like bugle beads, glass vase pieces, and blue vitrigraph. 

I’ll start by creating a metallic background. First, I’ll paint a coat of Metallic Pearl White, adding texture by brushing in different directions. Then, I’ll swipe Metallic Taupe up and down across the surface, followed by Metallic Ice Blue. Finally, I’ll dry it with a heat tool.

Grab your tracer, tape it to your canvas, place graphite paper underneath, and trace the ornament with a stylus.

Start by applying a base coat of Metallic Teal to the ornament and let it dry. Next, paint the ornament topper with Slate Gray. Once dry, add a second coat of Metallic Teal to the ornament for full coverage, and dry again. Finish the topper with a coat of Metallic Sterling Silver.

Looking for a unique, handmade gift or stocking stuffer? This adorable 6x6 Noel canvas is the perfect festive touch! With a blend of paint, reflective glass, mini pinecones, and resin, it’s a quick and creative project that makes a thoughtful gift for loved ones - or a charming addition to your holiday decor.

Start by painting the background with a coat of white paint, then blend in some Desert Turquoise to add color. I’ll use a squiggling motion to create texture. I’ll also make sure to paint the sides of the canvas. Once that’s done, I’ll dry it with a heat tool.

Grab your tracer, tape it to the canvas, place graphite paper underneath, and trace the evergreen branches and the word "NOEL" onto your canvas.

Mix a small amount of Avocado paint with water to thin it slightly, then use a liner brush to carefully paint the evergreen pine needles. Start with the center branch, and gently sweep the brush outward from the middle to form the pine needles. Aim for thin, imperfect lines t...

If you’re looking for a fun and creative way to make a unique holiday decoration, this glass wreath canvas project is perfect for you! Using metallic paints, shimmering glass pieces, and a smooth resin finish, you’ll create a stunning piece that’s both elegant and festive. Whether you’re a crafting pro or just trying something new, this step-by-step guide will help you bring your wreath to life!

Begin by creating your background using Metallic Pearl and Metallic Champagne paints. Squeeze both colors directly onto the canvas, then use a palette knife to gently spread the paint across the surface. Apply light pressure, barely skimming the canvas for a soft, blended effect. Once you're satisfied with the coverage, use a heat tool to dry the paint.

Let’s bring our wreath to life with glass! Start by placing a large vase, cup, or any circular object (around 3–4 inches wide) at the center of your canvas to act as a guide. Begin by arranging Solex Reflective Glass around the object to f...

Join me for a fun Christmas in July glass and resin art tutorial! We’re making a cute summer snowman on the beach using acrylic paint, mini starfish, starfire glass, small shells, and beads. This easy project is perfect for adding a touch of holiday cheer to your summer decor!

We are going to start by painting our background with a sandy beach on the bottom and a night sky on the top. Make a tick mark about 3 inches from the bottom. Paint this bottom area with Bleached Sand paint. Dry with a heat tool.

Next, cover this with painter's tape and we'll work on the top portion of the canvas. Paint a circular swirl of white paint in the center of your canvas. Blend in Bleached Sand, making the circle bigger. I'll do the same thing with Midnight Garden and Deep Midnight Blue. Swirl in some more white and Bleached Sand to bring it all together. Dry with a heat tool and remove the painter's tape.

Add a second coat of Bleached Sand to your bottom area, blending in some white paint as well. ...

I'm going to start by dividing my canvas into thirds - the sky, water, and sand. I'll use Sugared Peach to paint the bottom third of my canvas, using the flat edge of a large brush from left to right. Don't cover it completely, but leave some empty areas of your canvas for other colors. Grab some Oyster White and white paint and add those two colors in too. I'll also barely swish in gray paint on the two sides. 

Next, we'll work on the sky. Turn your canvas upside down to make this easier! I'll add Spa Blue, white, and gray paint using the same technique. T...

I grabbed some wood ornament blanks from Hobby Lobby and knew that I wanted to create some kind of glass and resin Christmas ornaments. While looking through my stash, I found a bin of chandelier glass that had tons of pieces to make pretty little angels. These were gifted to me, but I'm sure you could find similar stuff at any craft store, Etsy, or Ebay. I'm going to show you how to create these angel ornaments from chandelier glass!

I'm going to spray-paint my chandelier pieces so that they show up better against my wooden ornament. I am using Krylon Gold Leaf and Krylon Looking Glass Silver, but you can use whatever you have. Spray both the front and the back - no need to seal them! Let them dry for an hour or two.

Next, I'm going to take a metallic silver pen and a metallic gold pen to add a halo and accentuate the ornament topper. 

Take your glass off of your ornament so that you can get resin underneath those pieces. 

Mix 1/4 ounce of resin and stir gently for three minut...

This is such an easy holiday art project where we are literally going to scribble a tree onto our canvas! There is no tracer and very minimal painting. We are simply scribbling and adding glass, beads, and resin. This is absolutely perfect for beginners if you are just getting started with glass art and resin!

Let's start by painting our background! Add a coat of Metallic White and then pull it all in one direction so you have a nice, non-splotchy color. Then, mix some Metallic White with Metallic Festive Green and add some color in a diagonal direction. Dry with a heat tool.

Next, we need to figure out the shape and placement of our tree. I have a clear glass star that I will be using for my topper, so I'll place that on my canvas and add a little dot where that is going to be. The, I'll take painter's tape and form a triangle so that I know where to add my tree scribble.

I'll take a black Posca Pen and literally scribble my Christmas tree - starting at the top with a little wi...
