You could also use Pebeo's Vitrea pens, which are more transparent (for glass). <BR/><BR/>On my plates I prefer to use the Porcelaine 150 in the jar. I pour it into a little bottle with a screw-on metal nib so I can write with it and it's beautifully opaque and leaves a slight raised line. You can also stencil with it. Oh, and of course, you can brush it on. I've seen it at Michael's and Blick, as well as a few smaller art supply stores.<BR/><BR/>I thought it wold be fun to paint ceramic tiles then use them as an accent piece on a kitchen backsplash or in some other home-improvement project.<BR/><BR/>Looking forward to seeing any other projects you do with this paint!Pam Hawkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03516546337996538661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7556794318856646559.post-37065174009579763592008-05-30T11:29:00.000-05:002008-05-30T11:29:00.000-05:00I used to think I hated organge.

That is where I get most of my supplies for my art class room, but I have to order. Usually when I am making my school order, I throw in a couple things that I have been wanting and give the office some cash. Works out nicely and usually I can get free shipping because of how much stuff I am ordering.Marciehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10829525215554249795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7556794318856646559.post-4509470351083079002008-05-07T04:30:00.000-05:002008-05-07T04:30:00.000-05:00I walked by the Arabia store in Helsinki last week...I walked by the Arabia store in Helsinki last week and there was a 'paint your own mug' thing going on.
