I opted for the numbers instead of writing it out as on the inspo. I just thought it would look much classier.
All I know is that no one can tell me ANYTHING! I absolutely love it!cfb_1460639.jpg

    Thank you! No, I do not have a tutorial on making them. I just looked at the picture and figured out what I had to do.

    I used Canva in order to figure out the font and size that I wanted to use. They have better font options than Word in my opinion. Then printed it. I cleaned the glass and then taped it to the paper. This keeps it steady. Then I simply traced each number with a paint marker. Once dry, I painted the back using a sponge brush. U can use whatever size for this....if u want it to look more like the inspiration, I would suggest using a small sponge brush. I applied two coats to achieve the look I wanted.

    Thank you for this!!! So much cheaper than buying them and you can customize them however you like.

    You're very welcome and you're absolutely right. With this being glass, and if using acrylic paint, you can soak the paint of the glass and reuse it. The paint marker comes off with acetone. This was also a fun project. I say go for it!

    That is awesome! I plan to do something similar because my friend has a cricket I could borrow for something small like this.
