Glass paint: the glass paint I have been recommending in my tutorials, Liquitex glossies, has been discontinued 😱 I have spoken with Liquitex and they said they discontinued because of low consumer demand- there are other less expensive brands now on the market but  I haven’t tried any.  These gloss enamels by DecoArt look comparable.  I recommend a non transparent, washable, glossy enamel that can be cured by baking

    Jenna, Three Cheers for the Red, White & Blue! I know your grands will be thrilled to have their own grown up version and patriotic table with sailboat centerpiece! So smart to give them some sunglasses to model and sail pails to serve up their food to keep them from being crabby too 😉

  2. Jodi says:

    So fun and festive!

  3. Kim says:

    Jenna, this is just darling! I salute your patriotism.

  4. Emily says:

    We have a birthday in the family on July 5th, so we always start celebrating on the 4th. This table is the perfect Independence Day/Birthday table ever! Thanks for the dose of cuteness!

    Hi Jenna! It’s so good to be able to have a minute to sit down and visit with my blogger buddies!
    Your patriotic table is great…I’m loving the painted glasses!

  8. Lynn says:

    Very cute, I bet the kids get a kick out of the glasses:@)

  9. Jenna, you always set a fun and festive table! Smart to set up a kids’ table and plan things to keep them entertained! Beautiful!

  10. The hand painted stemware look fabulous and so does your table. The kids table is adorable!

  11. Hi Jenna, I would happily sit at the adult table OR the kid table!! You make this painting look so easy but I have my doubts! I remember when you made the bottles in the centerpiece. They are so striking with the flags in them too. I could just imagine sitting on your breezy deck waving the flags! Linda
