Serinity Crystals Leopard Print Champagne Flutes Rhinestone Project
Customise your glass wear and let your own fabulous personality shine by embellishing the outside of your champagne glasses with rhinestones in the pattern of your favourite animal.
For this project we used a leopard print pattern, however the basic method in this tutorial can be adapted to suit any design you might wish to embellish onto glass. We hope you enjoy this craft project and feel inspired to try new patterns and colour combinations of your own!

Instructions
Step 1
Ensure that the champagne flutes are completely clean and ready for gluing.
Step 2
Fill the Crystal FX Glue Syringe with enough E6000 Plus Resin Glue for your project, be careful to not take more glue than you need. The easiest way to do this is to place the end of the syringe inside the nozzle of the E6000 Plus glue tube and pull the plunger on the syringe while gently squeezing the tube of glue. This will transfer the glue from the tube to the syringe with minimal mess and exposure to the air.
Step 3
Once the glue is transferred you are likely to have a small air bubble in the syringe, hold the syringe vertically so that the bubble floats to the opening at top and gently push on the stopper, pushing the air out until there is only glue left inside. You can then attach the needle tip, completing the syringe.
Step 4
For ease we recommend printing out a leopard print pattern onto some paper and slotting it inside the flute of the glass to act as a guide.
Step 5
Use the loaded syringe to squeeze out a thin layer of glue onto the glass, drawing out your chosen design and leave it for 5 to 10 minutes to get tacky. Be careful to not apply too much, otherwise you will risk the glue running in unwanted directions. We also advise doing this stage in small sections when working on three dimensional objects to minimise the risk of accidentally touching the glue while it’s still wet.
Step 6
Use the Double Ended Wax Picker Pen to gently place the Jet and Light Amber rhinestones onto the glue in clusters that compliment the printed guide underneath the glass. Try to keep the crystals close together with as few gaps as possible for best effect.
STEP 7
Tidy up the edges and let it dry overnight, once the glue is dry you can remove the guide paper from inside the glass.
