My Newest Hobby

In a post back in January, I mentioned a new hobby I've recently picked up.  I wrote: "Finally, I have recently picked up a new hobby. Something that is just for myself and my personal enjoyment. I'm not sure where it's going to lead me, but I'm hoping it's something I can really stick with and have fun with. I'll have a post about it soon!"

Well, after a month of "practicing", creating, and brainstorming, I'm ready to share what I've been up to!  I will be opening up an Etsy shop at some point, but I'd like to see how my work goes over first.  I think I'll call my shop, "Classy Glass"...what do you think?

I've had a lot of fun coming up with ideas and creating what's in my head.  I started painting on goblets, then moved on to wine glasses.  I'm working on some other projects right now, but I won't be sharing those until next week!  I hope you enjoy these!


This was my very first design.  It took some adding of snowflakes (Mike's idea) before I was thrilled with the result!  These are gorgeous with a votive candle in them!


Then one day I was inspired to make a snowman in the snow too!


I created these for New Year's.  I also made some glasses for everyone at our New Year's Eve party, you can see those here.

Polka-dots are aways fun!

I'm really partial to this design as daisies are my favorite flowers!

I love these heart-shaped dishes!




Like I said, polka-dots are always fun! :)

This is my new favorite design.  I just finished it today, and it's just perfect for Valentine's Day!

  6. I'd love to learn to do that Melissa. I wanted to have some ladies over to paint wine glasses, but didn't really know how to go about it. Would you be interested in holding an impromptu fun class at my house. I could by the wine glasses and paint.
