I love JoAnn Fabric and Craft Stores. I recently found out that they have a whole section of fun Halloween and Fall crafts on their site with all the directions you need to make some adorable crafts! I saw the chalkboard paint wine glasses and thought it would be really fun to make some with my boys. I knew they would love to help paint and then to fill the glasses with "potions" for Halloween. I found wine glasses at my dollar store and JoAnn's provided me with the rest of the supplies I needed.
Next we painted it with chalkboard paint using a thin enough brush to get in the edges.
You'll need to let the glasses sit for about 24 hours so the paint can dry. Then add more coats if necessary. Then rub over the paint all over with chalk, wipe it off and you are free to write whatever you want on them!
We filled our glasses with juice and my boys wrote "pumpkin potion" for the orange, and "witch brew" for the purple. I think any fun juice color could be made into a fun potion. Does anyone remember Ecto Cooler? Does that even still exist? That would be super fun to use as a potion with its bright green color!
The boys thought it was so fun to drink their Halloween potions! After Halloween is over we will have to come up with other things we can write on our chalkboard glasses. Check out all the fun JoAnn Halloween and Fall craft projects HERE.

Happy Autumn Harvest Blessings! I would love to make the Paisley Pillows craft for artsy home decor!

the floor pillows!!! i need them in my life! lol
I love the black birdhouses. Thanks for the chance to win.
I absolutely love the paisley floor pillows and the Masks n mustaches!!
I also saw the floor pillow and loved them. We could use more quick seating in the living room. The glass idea is great too! Our kids could write their names on them for special dinners too.
P.S. Your "robot" thingy is really hard to read. I'm on my 12th attempt and still can't make one out.
I think the velvet pumpkins would be fun to make and have lots of uses. Thanks for the giveaway!
Wow! I didn't know there were so many GREAT projects at Joanns.com (even though I love ordering from them)!!! :)There are quite a few that I'd like to try, but I think my favorite is the Embellished Pumpkin Patch!
Your wine glasses turned out great!
Thanks so much for sharing and for the chance to win,

the paisley floor pillow are cute
thanks for the giveaway!
I love the embroidery hoop spiders with lace as the webs! That's really cute, and heck, that's stuff I have already, except for the fake spiders. However, there is an abundance or real spiders outside that I could "harvest" I suppose, hahaha!
The velvet pumpkins catch my eye - they are so expensive to buy and this would be far cheaper.
I'd like to try the Pick Your Poison centerpiece.
I really like the Finkins toss game, especially with the glow in the dark paint. Looks like fun!
Would love to do the Paisley Floor Pillows. Kids will love them.

Oh that would be great to use at a party - everyone could write their name on their glass!! Or you could paint and label glass jars to hold various craft supplies. I'm not very creative, so I'm sure somebody could come up with a bunch of ideas! Thanks.

I'd make the chalkboard potion glasses. Did not even consider that chalkboard paint would stick to glass. I have a lot of fun at JoAnn's and usually spend more there than I intend to.
I work with adults with disabilities and can't wait to make the boo-tiful birdhouses, only we will have to do them with a fall theme and use them as a Thanksgiving centerpiece! thanks for linking the ideas!
