paper or cardboard.

Step 2: Prepare Project
Break or Cut Red & White Glass at lengths so do not
cover the center where you will place the yellow frit.
Use a tiny
spec of Elmer's glue to hold them in place.
Let parts dry for at least 10 minutes until they do not
move.
|
Step
3: Add Enhancements
Using red stringers, snap them into pieces and using a
small drop of Elmer's glue them on the white scrap.
Lightly cover the open center area with a light coating
of Elmer's glue and sprinkle the yellow frit over it.Let parts dry for at least 10 minutes until
they do not move.
Then turn upside down over a paper plate or towel to
remove excess frit and place it back into container. |
|
Step 4: Place into Kiln
Using Fingers around outer edges
of the fusible glass project or better yet wear latex
gloves, pick up and place the project on the kiln shelf
paper/shelf. Leave a minimum of 1/2"
(13 mm) space between each project to ensure they do not
touch and fuse together.

If possible, leave the kiln sit unopened
until the next day so your project has had plenty of
time to anneal back to room temperature and it is
ready to use.
Step 6: Slumping Process- Clean glass and
lightly cover the yellow frit with another light coating
the yellow frit.
Place the mold in the kiln and centered the fused glass
over it. |
