Frosted Glass Finish. This spray full of frost for glass is an awesome way to design customized glass jars. I save jars all the time and labeling them with their contents is a fantastic way to get brand names out of the kitchen. Especially if they are not stored behind cabinet doors.

Today, I decided to customize some oil and vinegar bottles I picked up from the store. They happened to be $4 from Cost Plus! What a steal! Hopefully they wont drip every where. If they are cheap.

I started by taping off the outer edges in a rectangle. You can buy pre-cut litters with adhesive backing, but I wanted to cut out my own letters from tape. That way I wasn't running to the store again. I like to try to keep it cheap. Then I pasted my cut out letters within the rectangle on the bottle. I taped off the rest of the bottle so spray wouldn't get all over. Then I went outside to spray a thin coat of frosted glass. It took an hour to dry and still smells like paint after I brought it in to photograph, so I'll probably wait until tomorrow to wash it and add the oil and vinegar.

Finally, they'll be displayed on the little Ikea shelf (for pictures to prop up, but I use for bottles, spices and a timer-picture soon) in my kitchen and used every night I cook. Yum!
