Could have been any number of factors in this fail.
My kit was from the 70's....were bottles thinner? The glass showed an etch line, but when heated there was just some black marks and...bubbles?
Maybe if I didn't have a toddler hanging around singing Happy Birthday and trying to blow out my candle?

Reuse!
I am a lucky girl. My town has a recycling center. Not just because I can haul off my recyclables to a local place, but because of the free tables.
Yes, I wrote free. Think of it as a yard sale, but at no cost. Basically it is a set of sheds with things that are not quite ready to be trash, but they are unwanted by their current owner.
I get a lot of goodies there. Some are good to go. Some need a little help.
The frames were nice enough, just the artwork was not....my taste.
So after a quick little painting, it definitely will work for what I have in mind.
*Not the final result. I wanted to make sure the print would fit AND that it could actually be painted. This is just the first coat of paint, with an unmatted print.
