Does acrylic paint work on glass jars?
I’m painting on glass bottles and making them into make-shift vases or candle holders.
About Me
ALES LOMBERGAR is one of the few artisans in Europe who still practice the ancient art of glass acid etching which flourished in the late 19th century. Decorations are applied with resin resists by hand and then exposed to acid baths, with no machinery used. More information here.Recent in portfolio

I paint alot of things like that. I find good results using apple barrel acrylic paints. I’m cheap, so instead of using mod podge as a clear protective topcoat, I buy a can of clear spray paint & spray the object after it’s dry. Nice semi glossy finish that lasts a long time & helps keep your acrylic paint from chipping off. Makes it easier to clean the objects too.

Not very well. However There is an enamel paint made by Folk Art that will work quite well

Both FolkArt and Ceramcoat and other acylic paint makers produce enamel or waterbased ceramic and glass paints now. Look for them in the same displays as the regular craft acrylics in your Jo Anns or other craft store.
