Let's create a stunning yellow flower using cut vase glass! What makes this tutorial especially fun is its beginner-friendly approach – minimal painting is required, and no tracer is needed. Instead, we'll let the beauty of the glass itself take center stage, allowing its natural color and texture to shape the petals of our flower. 

We are using an 8x8 canvas. Start by painting your background with a coat of white acrylic paint. Then, blend in some light yellow paint. I'll also use my canvas plastic to dab my paint to give it some texture and lighten it up. Dry with a heat tool.

Now let's build a flower using glass! Take a generous amount of clear glass and add it to your canvas. This should be an organic shape, not a perfect circle. I had a yellow vase that I busted up with my pliers I will just start adding these glass pieces and layering them to create my yellow flower petals. 

For my flower center, I am going to use a glass chip piece. I also have a...

In our latest project, we'll be crafting a stunning glass and resin art piece featuring a lovely pink daisy. We'll be using a variety of glass goodies like green vitrigraph, cut pieces of sheet glass, and glass bubbles to bring our creation to life. This tutorial is perfect for artists of all levels, offering a fun and accessible way to explore the beauty of glass and resin art. 

Start by painting your canvas with white acrylic paint. Then, add green acrylic paint by using a paintbrush to pull it from the bottom up. Use the tips of your bristles to add some blades of grass too. I'll add some pink acrylic paint in a circular motion on the top half of my canvas and blend in some light yellow as well. Dry with a heat tool.

Let's add our glass! I have oval shapes that I have precut from a sheet of pink glass that I will use to create my flowers. I have larger pieces that I will use for the base and then I'll layer smaller pieces on top with tacky glue. I'll also use tacky glue to...

Let's dive into a groovy and unique artistic adventure today! I'm crafting a whimsical hippie-inspired flower art piece that's sure to bring a touch of retro charm to your space. During one of my Hobby Lobby adventures, I stumbled upon these glass flowers and immediately envisioned a funky 70s-style art piece. This project is simple, fun, and perfect for beginners looking to get started with glass and resin art!

I'm going to use a watercolor pencil to divide up five sections of my background. I'm doing curvy lines to create swoopy sections of color. I will paint each section with white paint and then add on light blue, dark blue, peach, orange, and pink. Paint the sides of your canvas too. Dry with a heat tool.

Grab your tracer, tape it to your canvas, place graphite paper underneath, and trace your flower vase and leaves with a stylus.

I'm going to use a liner brush to paint on my flower stems with Avocado Green. I'll also add a little bit of white paint....

Today, we'll be exploring how to create a stunning spring daffodil out of glass and resin! Using pieces cut from a glass bowl found at HomeGoods, along with vibrant green vitrigraph, crushed green glass, and delicate seed beads, we'll craft a one-of-a-kind piece of art. Whether you're an experienced glass artist or just starting out, you will love this tutorial!

To cut the petal shapes from a bowl, I used a scoring tool to score along the petal shapes of the bowl. Then, I'll line up my breaking pliers with the score line and squeeze to break off the glass pieces. Make sure you are wearing goggles and gloves to do this! Use a honing stone to dull the sharp points on your cut pieces.

Next, we'll paint our background! I am using a 4x12 canvas and a yellow-green color with white to coat the background. Dry with a heat tool.

I'd also like to create a splatter effect on the background. I'm going to mix green paint with water, dip an old toothbrush into the mixture, and run my...

I'm really excited about today's project because I've got Steve joining me to create this adorable mini rose canvas! I'll be walking you through the steps of making a simple glass art rose, and what makes it extra special is that you'll get to witness a true beginner, Steve, learning the ropes in real time. This one's perfect if you're just starting out or if it's your first venture into the world of glass and resin art. 

First, paint the sides and front of your canvas with black acrylic paint. Let dry or dry with a heat tool.

Now, we will start painting our flowers! I am using a #12 round brush and Dragonfruit, Poodleskirt Pink, and Strawberry. Start with the Strawberry (or your darkest color) and make a circle. Then, move on to your other pinks and make parenthesis with your brush to create that rose petal shape and layer each color. Next, I'll take Crocus Yellow and add some dots to the middle to create a flower center.

We are using a 6x6 canvas to create a gorgeous dusty rose poinsettia flower, which would look amazing in your home during the holiday or winter season! This one requires very minimal painting (just the background!) and has tons of glass goodies. I'll be showing you how to create a flower out of pieces of a candle votive and we'll also add lots of beads and resin. 

Use glass nippers or wheeled nippers to cut your flower petals from a candle votive. Take your nippers and cut horizontally around the edge with your votive, going around the entire votive until you get to the bottom. Your petals will not be perfect and that is okay! Once you have your petals, use a honing stone to sand down those sharp edges and points. 

Paint your background with a coat of Metallic White. Then, I'll add some dots of Metallic Stone paint and pounce my paintbrush to give the background texture. I'll also use the plastic wrap that was on my canvas and just dab that on it too. Dry with a heat...

We are working on a 4x12 canvas and creating a super cute sunflower gnome! I will show you how I paint this gnome from start to finish, and then we'll be adding some yellow glass sunflower petals as well as some amber-colored glass to our flower center. This is a great fall art piece to create this season!

Grab your tracer, tape it to your canvas, place graphite paper underneath, and trace your gnome onto your canvas with a stylus. 

First, I am going to start by painting his hat with Hauser Green. Then, I'll use a lighter green on the bottom part of his hat. Add a second coat to both colors.

Then, paint his shoes with black paint and his beard with white paint. Then, I'm going to mix together some black paint and white paint to create a gray color, and apply that to the gnome's beard as well. 

Paint the nose with Cool Bisque, which is a peachy skin tone color. Then, I'm going to add some detail work to the hat with some black paint and some white...

This 8x10 art piece is super easy to create because we are using a stencil! I this hydrangea stencil and knew it would be amazing with some rose gold reflective glass. I'm showing you how to paint and stencil this art project and add all of the glass goodies! This is a great spring or summer art piece and is perfect for beginners too.

First, I am going to paint the background with black paint. I'm going to use a sponge brush to get more coverage faster. Dry with a heat tool.

Next, I am going to add some stenciled flowers in my background. I am using a bright pink called Exotic Bloom and applying it with a stencil brush. Dip your brush in the paint, offload the paint, and then apply it in a circular motion over your stencil very lightly. Dry with a heat tool.

Now, tape your stencil down with your flower in the middle to create your main hydrangea. I am going to layer up on my colors, starting with the Exotic Bloom and concentrating it in the middle. Then, I am going to...

We are working with three tiny 4x4 canvases to make a trio of roses! I will show you how to paint these from start to finish, as well as add glass pieces for our rose petals. These would make great gifts or decor in your home for the spring and summer seasons. They are also super easy to create and are great for beginners just getting started.

First, paint the sides and front of each canvas with black acrylic paint. Let dry or dry with a heat tool.

Now, we will start painting our flowers! I am using dark pink, light pink, coral, and white paint. I am doing two pink roses and one coral rose. Start with the hot pink and make a circle - I like to make parenthesis with my brush to create that rose petal shape. Dry with a heat tool.

Do another coat of paint and then add in some light pink and some white paint, using the same parenthesis technique. 

Next, paint the leaves for each flower. I am using light green, dark green, and white paint to give the leaves some highlights and...
