Difficulty Level Original & quick

Duration 15

We need:

Simple vases made of glass

Ceramic or porcelain

Paint Brush

Chalk colour for glass

Transparent gloss varnish

tesa® Precision Mask Sensitive, 50 m x 25 mm

Time frame: 15 minutes per vase + drying time approx. 1 hour

How we do it:

Collect al items and let's start!

Coat the vase with the chalk colour paint

Prime the well-cleaned vases with the chalk colour. Repeat the procedure in several thin layers until the colour fully covers the glass. Allow the colour to dry for four days and then bake the vases in a non-preheated oven at 160 degrees for 30 minutes. Let them cool down inside the oven. Now the vases are dishwasher-safe.

Use tesa® 4333 Precision Mask Sensitive to mask off one part of the Vase.

Paint the masked-off part with the transparent gloss varnish.

Allow the paint to dry and remove the masking tape.
