I have always loved the look of etched tumblers but never wanted to buy a sand blaster or other etching machine – where would I store them?? So when I learned about using CitriStrip stripping gel I HAD to give it a try. Now that I have, everyone will be getting tumblers for the holidays. ๐Ÿ˜

set of six 20 oz tumblers on Amazon

I got the 20 oz black tumbler used in the example with my logo from Amazon.ย 

The set of 6 tumblers comes with 2 kinds of lids, 2 kinds of straws and a cleaning brush for each double wall travel tumbler.

The pink one in the video was from Walmart.

If you make a tumbler (good luck making just 1!) and post photos to social media be sure to tag me so I can see.
