Thank you! I'd like to start making these and incorporating them into yard art/solar lighting. The color of your jar is awesome, and I would like to try to make some and sell them. As soon as I do, I'd like to send you a tip. Just wondering, are these waterproof?

Far out! Modge Podge sells its own colorings in different tints (for 4 or 5 bucks. I just took it on myself and stained every clear glass I could get until I ran out. BUT I never read anywhere on the bottle to bake it. And I thought mine had turned out pretty good. Its been 6 months or so. Should I still bake it, or just let it be? Thanks for the great lesson!

Can white elmers glue be used instead? Also to shave off a couple of minutes would it be ok to mix the glue and the food dye inside the jar instead?
