[Nfb-krafters-korner] FQ: Craft Gifts Received

[Ramona Walhof]

I received a very nice gift from my son and daughter-in-law whichmight 
interest some of you.  They took four wine bottles and cut off the slanted 
tops.  Then they etched something representing each of their three children 
on three bottles, now glasses, with a picture of their house on the fourth. 
I have never seen anything quite like it, but some of you might be familiar 
with the process.  I am looking for a good place to display these unique 
glasses.
