Many thanks Jennifer! I stumbled accross your tutorial and thought I'd give it a try after some failed attempts at etching with this product. No where on the instructions do they say to continuely brush the product on for 3 full minutes. Armour Etch basically instructs you to glob it on and leave it for 1 to 3 minutes which left me with a patchy sloppy mess. Your method left perfect clear crisp writing on my bottles ( I etched 12) and they all came out perfect!! Just a note I used some removable vinyl that I had on hand (didn't like the color) and it worked great.
I agree so much! That's why I include them whenever it makes sense. To be fair, though, I don't include them ALL, but it's only because I try super hard to keep my videos easy to follow and not crazy long. Just know that there are some days when I make LOTS of mistakes. But all those mistakes are how we learn. :)
Hey Jen, I've been learning/using my cricut for 2+ years now and figuring everything out mostly by trial and error. Have a a couple pretty successful online decal shops and am migrating into glassware. I spent a couple of weeks working on the curved glass applications and sizes for all my logos on different glass pieces. I found your page yesterday while looking for tips n tricks, and honestly I haven't stopped watching lol. I think my cricut knowledge has more than tripled just this week, and that's solely due to you. So, THANK YOU. These videos are all amazing and you legit show anyone willing to put in the effort that its totally doable. Just wanted to say THANKS, and how great your content is. Cheers!
I’ve been a little DIYer (for fun)and Cricut owner for 6 years and I feel the same way! I’ve learned SO MUCH from watching a few of her videos. I love her creativity and how she made it so easy for us to understand. And puts things to the test so we don’t have to lol. THANK YOU JENNIFER
Those glasses are adorable. I always thought that etching was an expensive design put on glassware. I never dreamed it could be done at home. Thank you, Jennifer, for sharing this tutorial.
I just watched 3 other "top ranked" videos on this and yours is by faaaar the best. Thank you for taking the time to test things and make mistakes so we don't have to. Looking forward to going through your videos!
I really appreciate the quality of your videos and the fact you experiment and explain very clearly. However what I appreciate the most is your generosity. You could definitely make money with the quality and experience of your products and you don't and I really appreciate that. Thank you,
This is the 3rd tutorial I've seen & once again u came through. Before when I used the Armour Etch, I put it on the glass and let it sit for 3-4 minutes. However, by working it with a brush for that time, my etching was more clean and visible. THANK YOU!
I haven't tried etching yet, but your videos always make these things look so easy! I need to try this. Thank you, Jennifer. And for also showing your mistakes.
I haven't etched in a long while but remembered I got the best results from a particular video. It took some time, but I'm glad I managed to find it. Thanks for putting together such a concise guide. I'm bookmarking it this time.
Bases....where I'm new at this whole cricut thing and so excited to begin with new things....my husband came across you a week ago on doing boards ....your awesome lady
Welcome, JulieAnne! You can always find a materials list for our project, with links, in our blog posts! This blog post can be found right here! Look at the yellow box - the bases are called "LED base" ! 🥰 jennifermaker.com/how-to-etch-glass-vinyl-cricut/
Great video, as usual. Thanks for sharing. I have done several etching projects and have even etched my glass casseroles with no problem. I have etched dollar tree glass cutting boards for gifts that are smooth on the bottom and textured on the front. I agree that simpler designs on curved surfaces makes for easier crafting and better results. I can't imagine why anyone would give you a thumbs down!😐
First, I LOVE the idea of the illuminated base! I’ll be ordering some. I make custom bride and groom champagne glasses for wedding shower gifts. Here are two tips that I’ve learned over my many years of making them: 1. Small scrap vinyl pieces are perfect for this! It doesn’t matter what color the vinyl is. 2. If you’re making these to sell, recommend to customers that they hand wash with only soap and water, as the etching does wear off over time. Dishwashing speeds up that process by a lot!
I've been etching for 20 yrs. I have the same set of glasses I first made. They are still as bright as when I etched them. Never had any fading with a dishwasher. But every item is different.
The etching is abrasive process, using chemicals, it's like engraving on a micro way, but not too deep, so I can't see how a etched glass can wear off, unless you polish the etched area, than YES, it may looked like clear glass again, but to do this, you need to apply a lot of force and rubbing on you glasses while washing them.
I just discovered this. I want you to know how much I appreciate a tutorial where you have chosen your words carefully and avoid repetitive words like "I'm gonna" or "I'm just going to". It may sound silly when reading this but if you watch many of these tutorial videos (even some DIY network shows) certain words that are repeated just grate. You have a good voice as well.
Oh YAY!! Love your videos!! Much ❤️❤️❤️ From Ab 🇨🇦 Thank you for helping me with your creative ideas as well as your tips and tricks!! I can not tell you how much you’ve helped me with my projects!
I have wanted so very much to do this, now thanks to Jennifer, I will be able to do so. Thank you so much Jennifer. I watch your videos everyday and have learned so much.
I've been binge-watching your tutorial videos! I Love this project idea! I'm still saving up to get a Cricut.. It would be really nice to have one. So many crafts I can make with that machine. Those coasters and wine glasses are great gift ideas 💜💜💜💜
You are awesome. I love watching you. Honestly you are the reason I want a maker so bad. So I thank you for your hard work and your creative side. I have had so many ideas and you have shown me how to make them come alive.
I just found you on YT a several days ago and I Love,Love your tutorials! By the way, you look so cute in your apron! I will be watching a lot. TY and blessings!
Thanks so much for the help. Had the Armour Etch for ages and used it on a wine glass for the first time today and it worked first time despite me using a very fine font.
Love learning from you. You are so calming & you make me feel like I *can* do anything! Q: Does the quality of the brush you use to apply the etching cream matter? I picked up an inexpensive set of 5 at a local craft store that say they are made with 'soft natural bristles'. I'm hoping they will work for this process. Also related to the brushes; do you reuse them & if yes, how many times? My guess would be to use them until the bristles start adhering to your project. Well, hopefully before they make a mess of things anyway. For viewers: do you find yourself nodding & talking to Jennifer during her videos? LOL !!! It's like having your best friend in the room with you sometimes!
The quality of your brushes does not matter, and yes, if you wash them, you can re-use them as many times as you can! :) You are just too sweet! Thank you!
@@JenniferMaker The acid doesn't eat the bristles away on the brushes? My guess originally was that acid would damage anything! Do you use a liquid soap while washing them under running water?
I do a lot of Armour Etching and finally bought a Cricut to make my life a little easier. I have viewed numerous Cricut instructional videos and if there is anyone better than you at explaining the how to use the Cricut, I haven't found one. I also like the video on how much Armour Etch to use.
I just hit the subscribe button looking forward to watching more of your videos thank you for the step by step instructions I want to do some etching now
If you rinse with hot water, the vinyl will peel away super easy! Also, make sure not to get ANY etching cream outside your vinyl template... it will etch immediately when it touches the glass... so you could tape the exposed edges off with blue painters tape if you want to be safe and not sorry. I have etched many things and once in a while I make a boo boo!
@@azadehpourshams4808 , no, you can't remove it, it's like engraved to the glass (and in a way IT IS still engraving, but rather using the engraving tool and *scratch* the surface in this case it's done with chemical reaction to the glass - a *scratch* in a micro way, same thing, different technique) But, you can use your imagination and artistic skills and mask the "boo boo" with adding more "boo boo's" and make it look like it's done on purpose. It all depends on how big the boo boo is, some defects can be turned into piece of art.
I recently retired, and now have plenty of time to enjoy TH-cam. Running across your channel was a blessing. You are so creative!. Not to mention your voice, calm and captivating as you explain ....nice video , I will try this :)
Hello :) I just wanted to share with you and everyone... Armor Etch is a reusable chemical! Feel free to scrape off used Armor Etch with a small rubber/silicone spatula and put it right back inside the bottle for unlimited continuous use! :)
Well just need to rewatch for a third time. I cannot get the hang of this..All I wanted was the letters for ‘Holly’ wondered if I am doing everything backwards,which is possible..maybe I need a wine in the glass….x
Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us. Just got a cricut joy xtra and waiting for my Armour Etch to arrive sunday so i can start on this project. Also I'm watching ur other video on using my Android Phone with my cricut so thanks for that video as new well. Such a wonderful teacher.
FYI...Some “Pyrex” style glass will not etch. Anyone want to know how I learned this? By the way, I’ve still got some of the 16 casserole pans that were meant for Christmas presents.
I see people post all of the time they can’t get Pyrex to etch. I have etched 20+ Pyrex dishes and they have always worked. I only leave on for about 10 minutes. I wonder why this happens. I always get nervous when I have an order because so many people have trouble. So far I’ve been good though.
Thanks so much for sharing this video Jen. I've watched two other videos by someone else and the out come was a major fail for etching glass. Your video was so full of info the other youtubers left out. I should of followed your tutorial in the first place. Thanks to your tutorial in etching glass my project came out awesome. Thanks again Jen! You truley are the Best!🙂
You are by far the best and coolest TH-cam cricuiter! Literally other circuit youtubers just do the basic projects and you expand the creativity, discover new things and make us all feel confident in doing things out of our comfort zone! I appreciate you so much! Thanks for everything!
I was looking to do a wedding gift for my niece and thanks to you I now have tbe perfect idea. I really do appreciate the time you spend on making these videos to educate and entertain us. 😊
I just attempted my first glass etching after watching your video and it turned out perfect! Thank you for having such wonderful videos that are easy to understand!
This video is so timely for me. I was gifted a bottle of Armor Etch and I am so excited to try etching glass. Thanks again, Jennifer!! You are so generous with you knowledge. "Knowledge is power. Knowledge shared is power multiplied." You are empowering so many like-minded people. Love It!
, Jennifer, I've been pondering etching a set of wine glasses... while your advice was much different than many other videos, and it was definitely different from the manufacturer instructions... I felt you had the most credibility... I used your methods on 8 wine glasses. Everything looks Beautiful! You are absolutely right.. Thank you for Sharing!
I just bought a Cricut Maker and am researching ways to use it. Though I bought it mainly for cutting fabric, your video has inspired me to consider other uses. The video itself was very well done and your instructions are clear and through. I'm sure my chances of success have improved greatly. Thanks
Thank you Jennifer, this is the very first time I've ever watched one of your videos! Wow, you are so talented, not just in doing these Cricut things, but in telling us how to do it! THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!
Have fun, Sharon! Congratulations on your new machine! We have a new free series of online classes that show you how to set up your machine as a new Cricut owner! Here's the link to sign up: makeracademy.com/cricutkickoff
A tip I recently came across to snip the corner of the vinyl in cases like this so you can get more movement in the stencil! Going to try it in addition to your wonderful tips for my glasses. Thank you!
I made lights like that but I was engraving my glass with a dremel, and making wooden bases and wiring up the LEDS myself. Looked great, and more hand-crafted rather than store bought, but I am going to try using my Cricut and etching cream now
Thanks for the clear instructions. I was so excited to see this video yesterday. Immediately I purchased all the items needed last night and etched 2 small size glass cutting boards for a friend's birthday. I had to reverse the design so I could etch on the bottom of the glass. They turned out great! Hope he likes them.
I love that you show us what NOT to do in your videos as well as what to do!!!
Thanks! I make plenty of mistakes! If I can teach others to not repeat what I've learned, it's SO important! :)

@@JenniferMaker Have you thought of just doing a video with your bloopers as a general learning thing?
Thank goodness I watched this first before buying some stencil vinyl! Thank you!!
You are so very welcome!💗
I used stencil vinyl and from Hobby Lobby never again, Jennifer is the best
Stenciling vinyl "I discovered" is great for flat surface's, Only.

Thank you Jennifer, this is the very first time I've ever watched one of your videos! Wow, you are so talented, not just in doing these Cricut things, but in telling us how to do it! THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!
You are so welcome! 💜 I am glad to hear that!
You did it again! Love your video instructions. Thank you for sharing.
Great video, I can't wait to watch more.
Glad you enjoyed it
I etch alot of costers. Im glad to learn how i can make them easier. I had to rewatch the video again
Glad I could help!
I tried this today following this video step by step and it's fabulous to do! I can't believe I was so nervous. Thank you Jennifer
You are so welcome, Heather! 😍
Hi Jennifer! Great video as all your videos are clear, easy to understand and detailed. Your videos make my projects much easier. Thanks!
:) So happy to help! Thanks so much!
Very cool. Like the illuminated ones. Lots of decor potential.
Absolutely!
I used to purchase the stencils to etch glass, and am SO EXCITED to use my Cricut to create customized designs. Thanks for the great instructions!
Have fun!
Such an informative video - thank you for explaining everything from beginning to end and also showing what does not work!
Glad it was helpful, Jill! 😁
Thank you I loved watching you etch the glasses ! I just got my circuit for Christmas I can't wait to get started !!

Thank you so much for the trial and error. You are awesome. Thanks for the ideas
Great video!
Snipping the vinyl, but not too close to the design, is another good way to have the design lay properly around the curve.
That's a great idea!
A tip I recently came across to snip the corner of the vinyl in cases like this so you can get more movement in the stencil! Going to try it in addition to your wonderful tips for my glasses. Thank you!
You are so welcome! 💜
I made lights like that but I was engraving my glass with a dremel, and making wooden bases and wiring up the LEDS myself. Looked great, and more hand-crafted rather than store bought, but I am going to try using my Cricut and etching cream now
Go for it!
Omg this is so nice🎉 thank you so much for sharing this!
Glad you liked it!! 💗
I love to etch, but it's always great to learn new tips and what not's.
Etching is so fun! I agree! :)
Thanks for the clear instructions. I was so excited to see this video yesterday. Immediately I purchased all the items needed last night and etched 2 small size glass cutting boards for a friend's birthday. I had to reverse the design so I could etch on the bottom of the glass. They turned out great! Hope he likes them.
I'm sure he will!
I'm officially obsessed with glad etching
YAY! It's a good obsession! :)
