Just got this lovely 3.5x3.5 inch glass barrel cactus paperweight the other day. it is singed on the bottom but I can make it out. Any ideas? THANKS!

 

Vitry-I can't make out if those initials are BR,PR-can you see them better ?

 

Apply a thin layer of paint on your finger tip and try dabbing it on that area, it may become visible.

 

Or use tracing paper and make a rubbing

 

Or press it with a small piece of tinfoil, dull side up.

 

paint ??
u sure bout that ?

 

I tried the aluminum foil thing and it just didn't work.
I needed some paint for the living room anyway so I went to the store.
While I was gone, the kids did this with the aluminum foil...

On the way back from the hardware store, I had to slam on my brakes to avoid another driver who pulled in front of me and this happened....

Not wanting to give up, I tried the parchment paper/tracing thing. This is what I got....

Now, I'm headed to the urgent care clinic to see if they can help me out with all this paint....

When I get back, I'll try something else a bit more subdued

 

You Funny ......... ...............

 

The thought being that it would be opaque against the glass.

 

sure, but then how do u remove the paint ?
baby powder might be better...and then u could just blow it off with a huff and a puff !!

 

You might want to try the easy route and press a little modelling clay (like Sculpy) to get a print of the mark. Then dab a little paint or nail polish on the impression and press it lightly on paper.

 

ahhh, the ol' double reverse !!

 

Easy, even if it dries, it's on glass.
What you use just depends on what you have available to work with.

 

Ok, my mother has a neighbor who has foiled her entire 1000 sq foot apartment.

 

Like Andy Warhol's 'Factory' in NY.

 

Big brother not gonna spy on her. Nope, no way!

 

A tin foil helmet still wouldn't hurt-an ounce of prevention.God knows what's going on in those thousands of miles of tunnels beneath us.

 

Not as nicely done!
