LEARN HOW TO ETCH GLASS AND MAKE IT STAND OUT WITH COLOR IN THREE DIFFERENT WAYS!
I’m SO excited to share a new technique with you: color glass etching! Etching is an elegant way to permanently decorate glass, but sometimes I want a little more color in my decor. And I know you do, too! And so do you! Many of you have asked, “How can I add color to my etched glass to make my etching stand out more?” so I set out to find the answer. I’ve tested several color products and techniques with vinyl stencils customized and cut on my Cricut. I’m excited to share my favorite option for coloring etched designs on glass. The results might surprise you!

I have heard of Rub ‘N Buff, but never realized there were other options to coloring in your etched glass. This great to know! Thanks Jennifer!
You are so welcome! 💜
Thank you Jennifer, I knew you’d have the answer! I etched some glass coasters but need to colour the etching to make it more visible. Now I know how 😀
Glad it was helpful! 😊🌻
Hi Jennifer, I love the way you did this project .... I just recently used the etching cream for the first time on the whiskey glass!
How beautiful, thanks for the comprehensive tutorial, truly inspirational. I want to go and try this with all my plain glass vases. I even have a set of rub & buff in my craft supplies.
You are so welcome! Go for it!
Beautiful work. You always make things look so easy and fun to make. Can’t wait to get started on a project myself.
Thank you! Go for it! 😃
Had to watch this one again -- such beautiful work! I am hoping I can make items as beautiful/grand as you, one day soon! Great techniques and tips!!!
Thank you so much! You can do this! It really is easy. The Cricut does a great deal of the work. 😊
I can't keep up on all the wonderful new projects to try! can't wait to try this one too, thank you JenniferMaker!

This is so cool and easier than I thought it would be. Thank you for sharing, Jennifer
You are so welcome! 😃💜
Excellent tutorial as always, Jennifer. I have totally learned how to use and design on my Cricut from your tutorials. You are the best!
Glad it was helpful! Thank you!
Thank you for such a great video on etching techniques.❤️ It really inspires me to branch out & do other crafts.
You are so welcome! Glad to hear that!
This looks like a great way to up our etching game! Thanks for testing and sharing.
You bet!💗
I've also heard that you can use the little jars of enamel paint and bake. But I have never tried that method. Would love for you to try this out. I love that you try different methods and give tips and opinions. Thanks for being so willing to share with other crafters!!
It is my pleasure! 😃
Those are great, I love the idea of using the paints. Thank you for showing this.
I'm glad you liked it! 😃
What a great project. going to have to get better at doing vinyl before I tackle this one. Love that I have the video to go back to follow along
Go for it!
When I first learned how to etch the old fashion way with a drumel. We used the cream you have in gold, copper, silver, and a few other colors. Place them in the oven at 200 degrees for 10 minutes. It's nice to see a few other colors added to the list now. Another fun video. Thank you.
You are so welcome! 😊
I love this idea. I have etched glass years ago and can't wait to try it again.
Wonderful!
This is wonderful Jennifer, can't wait to try this!!
Yay! 😃💜
I love your channel! I really appreciate all the time and effort you put into trying, testing and designing new techniques and projects for your community. You do the hard work so we don't have to, and I am really grateful for that! I would love to be able to make reusable stencils for glass etching... any ideas on what materials might work/how to adhere them? Also, would you ever consider doing a video on how you create your original designs? Thanks for all of the passion you pour into your videos!
Thank you very much💗It would be difficult to make a reusable stencil for etching due to getting a good seal for the etching cream. If you figure it out, please let me know!
Appreciate the level of detail given as you explain what you are doing.
Thank you so much! 😃💜
Thank you Jennifer for your step by step tutorial. I stumbled on to this. Appreciate you sharing your talent. I have to try this🙏🏽

Hi Jennifer, I just did my first set Etching glass mugs with chocolates eggs in them for Easter for my family with their names on them. They turned out so great! I was wondering if you can do Etching on a coffee mug (ceramics or does it have to be glass)? Also can we do it on a black glass so the White Etching would stand out more? Love your videos!!!!
Thank you for taking the time to do this comparison, Jennifer.
You are so welcome! 🌸
Love this idea!! Thank you for sharing.
You are so welcome! 🌸
Jennifer you are THE best! Thank you for testing all three methods so we don't have to.
You are so welcome! 🌸

Hi from Buffalo NY. I LOVE these techniques. Thank you ❤️
You are so welcome!
Love this. I think the glass plate with gold is my favorite!
Thanks! Mine too! 😃
I love the gold Rub'n'Buff plate, but I also like the silver vase too.
Does anyone seal after coloring? Do you bake after using Rub ‘n Buff?
Added to my amazon cart can't wait to try it
Love this. I'm ready to try all if this!!
You got this!
Thank you. This is great information and I love the svg files.
You are so welcome! Glad it was helpful! 💜
I enjoyed how the colors came out on these items.
Thanks so much! 🌸
I have a nice etched glass that was hard to see the design and read the lettering. I found this video and colored the etching with rub and buff following your instructions. It made the etching pop. A vast improvement over the plain etching. Thanks for the video.
Did you rub on the inside Id the glass? Other side of the stencil
@@sweete64133 I didn't etch the glass, I ordered it from Amazon. I rubbed and buffed it directly into the etching on the outside of the glass. I looks amazing, the gold leaf makes it look classy.
Awesome ! love it ! Thank You !
You are so welcome! 💜
Thanks so much for the tutorial 🌸🌸🌺🌺
You are so welcome! 💜
Never knew this was a thing. Can't wait to try
Thank you so much Jennifer.
You are so welcome! 💜
Great video, if only I had the supplies to start etching now. I love the look.
Thank you! 😊
Thank you for great etching advice
You are so welcome! 😃💜
Your videos are SO helpful!
Glad you think so!
Very nice, I would like to try this.
These are beautiful!!!
Thank you!
I love the plate. I will have to try this!
Please do!
So neat looking, definitely gonna try, ty
Please do! 🌸
Great video. I think I’m going to give this a try. I’ve always been intimidated by glass etching.
Go for it! 😃
Fun! Can’t wait to try it
Yay! 😃
Very interesting, you make it look so easy.
It is! 😃
Thak you for a very informative video, I only came across rub n buff today, got all excited and went to order it, then thought I'd watch a few videos first, yours was by far the clearest. It looks great, but I prefer a really shiny finish! So I'll stick to applying metallic foils, it takes a bit longer but the finish is awesome. If nothing else, you saved my crafting brain from spending money and not getting the result I wanted lol...so thank you for that! 💜
My pleasure!
Thank you so much So helpful !
You are so welcome! 💜
Wow, who knew! Thank you as always! Since you mentioned it, I DID drop 2 big glops on my phone the first time I attempted etching. Not good 🤦♀️
Thank you for another awesome video
You are so welcome! 😃💜
Your so wonderful for sharing your knowledge
So nice of you!
Love this idea!
Thank you! 😊
I haven't ever etched before. You make it look easy.
It is easy! Try it!
Love this so much.
Thank you!
Looking forward to trying this, last time I tried to do the stencil it was a failure. Hopefully this next time it will be better.
You can do it!
Great video! Thanks for sharing 😍🌴💕
You are so welcome! 💜
The colored etched glass is beautiful!
Thank you!
I absolutely LOVE ALL of your videos!!! I’m in the process of building my business for the SOLE purpose of teaching other women,(who are currently living in our local domestic violence/sexual assault shelter), new skills that might help them support themselves and their children! I was soooooo hoping to win the cricut maker 3 bundle a couple weekends ago during your weekend classes so I could donate my cricut explore air 2, to the ladies at the shelter! I’m so excited for the winners of ALL the amazing giveaways and I’m just going to keep saving up for the new cricut! I’ve been collecting different types vinyl, tools and blanks to donate with my machine when I’m able to purchase a new cricut! Your videos ALWAYS inspire me to push my boundaries and I’m so grateful for you!!!!!!❤
That is wonderful what you are doing to help women! 😃❤️
Very helpful, thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Beautiful Will have to try that
Yay! Give it a try!

You’re welcome 😊 🌸
♥ this. Thx for sharing.
Our pleasure!
Will have to try this one day!!!
You should!
Thank you. glad I watched this as etching seems bland with no colour. I got paint pens so will try this out. Also I always use to lay my glasses on is the cardboard sides that come with the maker inside the box it is perfect and stops my glasses from moving
What a great idea! 😃
Love it thank you
You are so welcome! 💜
