Re: Anyone remember Glass wax and the window stencils?

Amazon has Glass Wax. A reviewer stated that it didn't work on the stencils. But, the reviewer also stated that Gel-Gloss No Streak Glass Wax carried by Amazon works on window stencils. Amazon also has Christmas window stencils.

I remember trying stencils one year.  It was difficult to do but I was happy with the results.

Apropos of nothing really, LOL, but the little girl in the Glass Wax commercial is Pamelyn Wanda Ferdin.  She was one of the girls who was the voice of "Lucy" in the Peanuts cartoons.

The tin was pink and the liquid was kinda pink too until it dried. 

Some may have had trouble dabbing it on the strncil but My trouble was leaving the art Alone once it was dry.  I would scratch at it with a fingernail. Those angel dresses started looking mighty thin by the time I was done!

@Nataliesgramma  I remember making those stencil designs, back in the 50's. I don't know if Glass Wax is made anymore.

 

  I have been planning to mention decorating windows with Glass Wax and stencils, when I post in Community Chat about my Toni Dolls (1950's dolls) getting ready for Christmas.

 

 I'll post it probably next week.

Original Glass Wax stencils still out on Ebay.

@MorningLover   YES!  Oh, YES!  I saw those pictures and my mind flashed back to when my Mom would pour some Glass Wax into a pie tin, give us kids a sponge and let us Have At It! 

Brought a happy little tear to my eye.

Thanks for sparking that memory!

Re: Anyone remember Glass wax and the window stencils?

Yes!!! My Mum stenciled our windows with Glass Wax every Christmas! I have carried on the tradition and now my daughter also stencils her windows for Christmas!! Of course they no longer make Glass Wax or the Glass Wax stencils but the stuff they sell now a days works pretty good and I use the old stencils from home and ones I’ve purchased from eBay!!
As a matter of fact, I’ll be stenciling my windows in the next couple of days!!🎄

@candys mine I thought it used to be pink at some point but then thought maybe I was thinking about something else.
