Tun Tavern (SistersBranding)
Raising of the flag Iwo Jima (History Digital)

For this tumbler I did a half and half with the spray paint. I have had issues using painters tape so I used a paper plate that I had cut a hole in and put half way up the tumbler.
After I painted it I added a coat of epoxy with some gold glitter mixed in.
Once that dried I added the vinyl cut outs. The Tun Tavern cut out took me a while to weed it. There are a lot of tiny pieces. I cut it at 5 inches...if you can go bigger I suggest that you do.
The gold vinyl on the Tun Tavern cut out gave me issues once it was on the tumbler...it started getting air bubbles. I tried to pop them but it wasn't working and there was too many of them...so I was a little disappointed.
I want to thank all Marines for the sacrifice and for their service
