Cutting machines in home decor is all the rage right now, but what if you cant afford one but want to join in doing some of these fun projects. Well, with etching you can do it with letter stickers! I dug through my scrapbooking stash and found these stickers, although flat ones would work better I am using what I had for this tutorial.
Etching is super easy and gives such amazing results, once you try it you will be hooked, I guarantee it! Nothing will be safe in your home again!
Here are the completed bottles, although the etched lettering is hard to see, there is a closeup in the next photo. It is easily seen in person, just hard to get on camera.
Using your letters, adhere them to the oil and vinegar bottles. Be sure to press them down really well. You do not want the liquid penetrating behind the letters.
Once you have the letters in place, tape off the top really well to create the line at the top. I used a soft drink cup that I had on hand, nothing fancy is needed to create etching projects.
I placed the bottle into the cup and added the Dip n' Etch until it covers just past the taped portion. I placed a heavy book on top to hold it down into the water, for 15 minutes. Take the spouts off before putting the book or other heavy item on top.
After 15 minutes, pull the bottle out, take the tape and letters off of the bottle. Rinse in the sink well. Then using a paper towel wipe off and dry the bottle very well. Use several paper towels to bring up the frosted look.
Repeat for the other bottle, once you have them both dry you have a set of etched Oil & Vinegar bottles for your kitchen.
Happy Etching,
Candy Rosenberg
