Wine Glasses and Polka Dots... semi-fail

...sigh...

DIY semi-fail...

Remember my cute set of glasses for Jason and me?



Well, baking them (as the directions I found online said) didn't seal in the acrylic paint.  Thumbs downs.

So, back to google, most of the suggestions I found said to get an acrylic sealer.  Off to Michael's I go!  Only to find out that all of the acrylic sealers "contain a chemical known to the state of California to cause cancer, birth defects and/or reproductive harm."  Lovely.  I may not live in the state of California, but I think Kansans would get the same harmful effects.  I'm not going to risk that for a cute glass.  Double thumbs down.

And Hobby Lobby is closed tomorrow.  So I guess my project will go unfinished for another day.  There HAS to be some kind of food-safe sealant.  Right?

I guess I'm really bummed because I was hoping to get this project done and packed away before I started school on Tuesday.  Guess I have another half-finished project waiting...
