JASON PAINTER: Hi. I'm Jason. Today, we're painting on glass. Painting on glass is kind of a technical thing, but we're going to make it easy today. When you go buy your supplies from the art store, they've got kits that you can buy to actually put your design right on the glass and almost mark the glass first. I've got a way easier way to do it than that. I just take the--my design and when I cut it out I make sure that it's too big to fit inside of my jar. I cut it out and I'll actually just fold it, push it down inside or where I want it to go. And it's going to stay right there. I can outline it. I can paint it. I don't have to do all the extra steps, all the extra clean up, or worry about fine lines, anything. It's all right there. If you feel like it's not sturdy enough for you, you can put a piece of tape at the bottom. I've never needed to. This has always worked just fine for me. If you want to put two designs in and you want to paint one on the front and one on the back, you got the back side also. I'm only going to put one on for today.
