I bought a bunch of wine glasses and am painting the flowers myself w/ enamel paints (this way they're dishwasher safe and hand washing safe).

Absolutely! So does that mean I can have one? They are gorgeous, you paint them yourself?

Re: What do you think?
Thsoe are great. YOu might want to include a little note in the boxes that says they are dishwasher safe.
For my friend's shower, her brother painted flowers on little glass boxes & her sisters filled them with hershey ksses. That's my favorite favor ever. I ate the chocolate on the way home & keep matchbooks in the box.
I think its extra-special beacuse I know he painted it.
Very cool idea.

Thanks! You know how you're 'TOO OBJECTIVE' of your own work? (At least I am). My family thought they looked good but I figured they were just trying to be nice. Thanks everyone!!!

Tourist- I already made up little notes to put in each box! Great minds think alike!! Thanks for the suggestion We're giving them 2 per box - 1 box for each couple and 1 box for each single (this way they have a pair)

The paint is by Folk art and it's their ENAMEL paint (it has an E on the top) - they dont' have it at Michaels but they carry it at walmart.

About 300 ppl are being invited but I'm not sure how many will come. All I know is I'm going to paint a lot of glasses now so I'm sure I have enough and if I need to paint more then I'll do that w/in a week of the wedding. The paint is great b/c you paint- let it dry for 1 hour and then bake it in the oven for 1/2 hour and it's DONE!!!

Re: What do you think?
No- I use Folk Art paints for everything that I paint. The enamels are better for glass b/c they won't come off.

Re: What do you think?
and baking the calss doesn't break it? Did you have to get a certain type of glass?
