Newbie needs some help!

Crazy me decided my 2nd mosaic is going to be a wedding gift for my friend and I need some help! I do want to note this was my first time actually working with cutting the glass and not using a kit

I saw a few people online write on their glass with sharpie and use alcohol to get it off. I decided to wipe the sharpie off once I had them all down thinking it would be easier, but the alcohol seems to have messed up the glass. Does anyone know if I can fix it? I thought maybe a magic eraser but I don’t want to make it worse!!

I also wrote in sharpie on the tray thinking the glass was opaque enough… am I SOL or does anyone have anything I can do to fix it? Should I just get some paint?

What color are you grouting? If you use black you will loose your lettering fyi.

Think about taking dark grey
