Stenciling Instructions:

Squeeze a small amount of paint onto foam plate.
Load the foam pouncer with glass paint by dabbing into the puddle of paint.
Holding the foam pouncer as you would a pencil, begin dabbing straight up and down over the opening of the adhesive stencil. Continue painting until the entire design area has been completed.
Set foam pouncer aside in container of water for cleaning. While paint is still wet, neatly and carefully lift stencil by peeling away from the glass surface.
Continue adding stenciled designs over glass surface until desired effect is achieved.
To further embellish the stenciled letter, use the writer tip to paint Swiss dots on the broad portion of each letter. Position the writer tip where desired, lightly squeeze the bottle until desired dot size is achieved, then release pressure and lift.
Set completed project aside for one hour to dry thoroughly.
All glass surfaces painted with Martha Stewart Crafts® Glass Paints should be cured to increase the paint’s durability on glass or ceramic surfaces. Follow either the Bake To Cure Technique or the Air Cure Technique on the bottle.
