Cool signs!

Great idea!

I etched a set of 4 glasses like this for a wedding gift. It works pretty slick, except you have to make sure the vinyl is laying perfectly flat so no etching cream gets out of your design area.

I actually used vinyl for the stencils instead of freezer paper, but it's basically the same idea. These are for my niece's birthday. I got the tanks and shorts at Target for less t...
