Create your art and flop or reverse the image before printing. You may need to print in tiles and puzzle piece together your final artwork.Print your art in a color other than the color of paint you will be using. This is helpful to see areas you have yet to paint. When your paint and template art are the same color, you are more likely to miss areas.
Tape your art into position on the best side of your window face down. Begin painting on the opposite side.Once dry, you can remove most of the template,and view from the good side to see if you have any transparent areas you'd like to go over. Clean up any imperfections by scraping with razor blade.

I have seen stuff like this done using Sharpies - also used Sharpies and coloring book pages, with crumbled up aluminum foil, then flattened out, and put behind the picture - forgot what it is called, but years ago we used to do it with India ink.
You don't even need to go buy acrylic craft paint. It's a great project to use up any bits of paint you have.
That is really neat. Thank you for the instructions. Where did you get the curly que under Welcome. How do you reverse it on the printer. Just got a bunch of frames with glass that came into our thrift shop. Think I will make some of these signs. I'm sure they will sell better than the frames alone.
