Calling All Superhero Lovers

My kids love superheroes! We can’t get enough of our favorites (currently Flash and Green Arrow) enjoy watching all our favorite crime fighters on Netflix including:

• Supergirl – Superman’s cousin has arrived in National City and she has Girl of Steel powers! Supergirl uses flight, super strength, and laser vision to face the menaces that plague Earth.
• The Flash – Young Barry Allen gains the power of super speed after being struck by lightning and becomes the hero of Central City. The Flash faces villains who use their own super powers for evil.
• Arrow – Oliver Queen is a rich playboy who turns into a vigilante after he is shipwrecked and stranded on a mysterious island for five years. He takes on crime and corruption in Star City with his martial arts skills and bow-and-arrow.
• Batman (Lego DC Comics: Batman Be-Leagured) – Batman is a self-sufficient loner but when Superman and other Justice League superheroes start disappearing he becomes a team player to save the day.

Superhero Custom DIY Sharpie Glasses

Celebrate your favorite superhero with these easy DIY Sharpie Glasses. Just trace the pattern onto the glass and allow them to dry… it’s really that easy!

(Pssst…. Sharpie Oil Based Paint Makers are made to write on glass, ceramic, pottery, and more. You should wash the painted glasses by hand to keep the design looking great.)

Supplies

• Clear Glasses
• Oil-Based Sharpie Paint Markers (fine point and medium point markers work best)
• Superhero Logo Printable Pattern

Directions

1. Prepare the glasses – Remove all labels then wash and dry the glasses. Wipe the surface to be painted with rubbing alcohol or vodka to remove any oil from your hands. Allow to dry.
2. Choose your pattern – Print the pattern file, cut out the desired logo, and tape inside of the glass. Make sure that the logo is low enough so your lips won’t touch the design when drinking from the glass.
3. Decorate the glasses – Used an Oil-Based Sharpie Paint Marker  to trace the pattern.
   • If you have to go over an area a second time allow the paint to dry for 10 minutes then touch up the paint. Press lightly when applying the second layer or you will remove the first layer of paint.
   • Mistakes can be removed with rubbing alcohol, nail polish remover, or vodka.
4. Cure glasses – Allow glasses to dry for 24 hours before using or bake the glasses to set the paint. Baking the glasses is optional, some crafters think it adds durability to the painted design others believe it can ruin the colors.
   • Allow the glasses to dry for at least 20 minutes then place in a cold oven.
   • Heat the oven to 350 degrees, turn-on time to 20 minutes, and allow the glasses to cook.
   • Turn off the oven and allow the glasses to cool before removing them.
