· Step 2: Put Glass project together    Place the small glass circle at the top the where the tip of the hat will rest.  When satisfied with the hat position, use a toothpick or plastic Cocktail fork to put a "tiny" drop of glue to adhere the Witch's hat to the top of the white glass and the small round circle. (The circle is use to allow the hat to have a shape when fired as it will drape downward between the white face and the tip of the hat.)

Let dry for at least 20 minutes before moving piece.
