Hi there. I am wanting to put some vinyl on some glass ornaments, but just wondering how to do it? It seems it may be difficult to burnish.

Just go ahead and put it on by starting at one side of your image and laying it down. It should just follow itself; it's pretty pliable/flexible. I love working with vinyl and contact paper. Everything lays down pretty easily; at least what I have worked on the past few years laid down. IF IT DOESN'T WORK, merely pick it back up and try again. You can't hardly go wrong with it. If you're planning on using it as a stencil on a rounded base, then that might be harder. If it puckers a little here and there, you might have to snip it a little here and there to make it lay flat. Hope that made sense. Can't wait to see your finished ornament. Char Edited by user Friday, November 23, 2012 3:43:09 PM(UTC)

Char, Thanks so much for your reply! this is not for a stencil, it's just to put a name on the ornament. I have used vinyl lots before, but not on a round ball! I just thought it might be more difficult. Thanks for the tips! Made perfect sence!
