Mercury-Style Glass

I LOVE mercury style glass- lamps, vases, candlesticks, you name it!  However, I do not like the price tag that comes with it.  So, after checking out the internet I found a great way to create the mercury glass look at a fraction of the price. 

Here is what you will need:

• Krylon "Looking Glass" Spray Paint (I got mine at Hobby Lobby for $11.99)
• Spray bottle filled with water
• Any type of clear glass.  (I got all of mine from Target for $12.95)

1. Start by cleaning and drying your glass, removing any stickers
2. Work individually with each piece of glass- Start by misting with water from a spray bottle.
3. Spray the piece with the Looking Glass Spray Paint, getting all sides.  You may need a couple of passes to cover.  It will look drippy and uneven- don't worry, that is the effect you want!

Allow to dry, about 1 hour.

Display and enjoy!
