Etched mug Do Your Job

With our Patriots playing in the Superbowl tomorrow, I took time last Saturday to etch this mug.

It's difficult to get a picture of glass, however using contact paper and a printed image from Google, I hand cut with an exacto knife the phrase and logo.
Placed it on the mug (prepare your glass by cleaning it with rubbing alcohol).
Weeded out the main pieces and then layered on a thick amount of etching cream. I waited 15~20 mins, washed off the cream and peeled off the stencil. Unfortunately you can only use the stencil once.

Let's go Patriots! Do Your Job!

Dollar Tree mug etched

As soon as I saw this huge mug at DT I knew gifts were in mind.
I printed off a template of The New England Patriots and using Contact paper I cut out the stencil.

Placed it to the glass and dabbed on a thick layer of etching cream
I left it on for 40 minutes just to be on the safe side as my cream was old.

It is hard to get a clear picture due to the glass. I'm quite pleased and got the etching on my first try!
