Shot Glass Ideas

I'm not really sure what you're asking. Are you asking how to make a shot glass into a cool gift? If it's for something like a wedding, you can fill it with M&Ms of the wedding colors (you can even get the M&Ms to say things on the M&M website). You could also do jelly beans, nerds, gobstoppers, etc.

You could do mini daisies or mini orchards.

You could paint the shot glass, fill it with confetti... it all depends what you want to do with it!

I did decorative photo plates for family members a few years ago and they loved them. With that many photos, you could do a larger tray or serving platter (for cookies or something that doesn't really have to be washed well, just rinsed). Get a clear glass plate, tray or platter. Buy decoupage stuff at a craft store or Walmart. Get the photo's copied on plain paper and cut out around them however you want. Use the decoupage stuff to "glue" them to the backside of the plate/tray/platter . Let dry. Do one or two more coats (smoothly) of the decoupage glue to seal the photos. Let dry. Then use acrylic paint (your choice of color) and paint over the back with several coats, drying between coats. When done, apply a couple of coats of clear spray paint over the paint to seal it. You can do some very creative things with these. You can add other flat things (clip art, etc.) in between the photos or you can sponge paint more than one color for the painted "background". These are fun to do and are decorative. I love doing homemade things - I think they are more appreciated by the recipient. Hope you find something fun to do for them!

you could paint the bottom of the shot glass using Liquidex Glossies paint and bake for about 40 minutes at 325 degrees. You can do cool or cute designs and use pretty colors!

well it depends on if you are giving it to a guy or a girl since you said flower arrangement im guessing a girl.. you could make a candle and like decorate the outside of it by painting it or like fold some flowers around the outside of it ... but if it is for a guy you could still give a candle or just paint a really cool pictures on it ... if you want to paint it use oil paints they work really well on glass but if you are not comfortable with that water bases paints work also.
