I was saddened to read that you sanded the old green paint. If that window was painted before 1978, it likely had lead in it. Open sanding is the most dangerous method for paint stripping with lead paint. It spreads invisible lead dust everywhere. This toxic dust is easily inhaled by all or ingested by crawling kids putting their hands in their mouths. It can cause irreversible nervous system and brain damage. For such a small stripping project, use non-toxic, “green” chemical strippers. Read http://www.epa.gov/lead for details. PLEASE, PLEASE add a correction to your DIY article on this project.

If you’re looking for something permanent to write on glass, Sharpie paint pens are the perfect thing. The only thing is, allow dry time and be careful not to smudge! The oil based ones are going to be the most permanent – here’s an affiliate link to my favorite pack of metallic Sharpie paint pens: http://amzn.to/2gKltMi. Otherwise, if you decide you do want something you can redo seasonally, the white window marker I used in my video you saw is this one: http://amzn.to/2zfyicA. While this window marker is temporary, it won’t wipe off easily because you will be displaying the side with the writing behind the glass, against the wall.

Best of luck to you with this craft!

I seen in a previous post that you used chalk paint pens. Are these permanent or does it come off easily? I’d like something a little more permanent.

In reply to Treasured Chaos. Thank you! I kind of liked the chippy green paint, too.

I guess I’m just going to comment on every post! I love this project! It’s one of my favorite scriptures paired with reclaimed goodnesss. Fave x 2!! Have to say, though, I was loving that window after it was scraped before it was painted white. Not every one goes for grunge, though! Love it!
