It is not that difficult to make stained glass jewelry boxes that will look just as beautiful as the genuine thing. It is a project that is perfect for the beginners in the handcrafting art.
You may use small pieces of glass on the project and it will make it an excellent project for starters. The details that you decide to paint on the glass may be complicated or not, accordingly to the design of the boxes.
First, you should sand the outside of the stained glass jewelry box with some light sand paper. Then, you need to wipe the box carefully with a moist cloth in order to remove all the dust particles. Next, you need to dry the jewelry box.
Afterwards, you have to paint the stained glass jewelry box with the your favorite colors. You might use faux finishing methods for making the stained glass jewelry box look very decorative. Leave the surface where the glass has to fit unpainted.
Now, try to apply a coating of polish to the painted jewelry box. Permit the finish to dry totally. You need to sketch the design of the stained glass on a paper that has the exact size of the glass. After that, place the sketched paper beneath the glass.
Next, you have to cover the main lines with your favorite main colors. Let the stained glass jewelry boxes dry completely and then apply all the other colors. Let them dry fully again. There is one more thing to do in order to finish the stained glass jewelry boxes is to glue them and place a cord around the border of the area with the glass. Now, your handmade stained glass boxes are ready to enjoy. They are perfect gifts for family or friends.
