Project Steps

This design was etched in stages. The technique allows the use of a particular stencil image multiple times on the same project when you don't have enough to etch all simultaneously. Additionally, it enables stencil images to be placed in closer proximity than the stencil borders would otherwise permit.
After preparing the glass, position dragonflies from the top to the bottom.
Follow the etching cream instructions to etch the dragonflies onto the bottle.
Continue adding and etching dragonflies to the bottles until the desired look is achieved.
Unpack the cork lights and follow the directions to thread the lights into the bottles. Fit the cork into the top of the bottles and turn on.
