Step 1 - Preparation
Clean Glass:  using Alcohol or Dish Washing Detergent. Then dry and set aside on a clean piece of paper or cardboard. 

Clean & Prep Kiln: 
    Apply Kiln Wash (Shelf Primer)

    Place Kiln Shelf Supports, Shelf and Shelf Paper into Kiln

Step 2: Prepare Glass & Apply Dicro Decal Designs _tm: 
(See Glass Tips & Tricks section: How to use Dicro Slide)
Soak the Dicro Slide tm scraps or tiny strips for 20 seconds in water and then slide off the paper backing on to the back and top of the Blue Glass Circle base, smooth out any air bubbles and place the clear glass on top.  Let dry for 10 minutes.

Step 3: Assemble Glass
Add a small strip of your choice of colors of stringers snapped to fit the glass circle (we used one red and one yellow) and using Fuser's Glue place them across the top of the blue glass and then cap with the clear circle.  Let the project completely dry before moving.

Note: (You can use hair dryer in-between layers if you want to speedup drying time.)

Step 4:  Place into Kiln Using Fingers around outer edges of the fusible glass project or  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.
