· Elmer's™ Glue
· Rubbing Alcohol, Dish Washing Detergent

Small Fused Project step-by-step instructions:

Clean Up Supplies:

· Rubbing Alcohol, Dish Washing Detergent
· Cloth with very little lint (old T-shirt)

Step 1 - Preparation
· Clean Glass, Money Clip & Metal Inclusion using Alcohol or Dish Washing Detergent. Then dry and set aside on a clean piece of paper or cardboard.

· Cut 2 of the 1 1/2 inch Dichroic Circles in half so they will match up evenly to the other Circle's half.

· Clean & Prep Kiln:
    · Apply Kiln Wash (Shelf Primer)
    · Cut Shelf Paper to fit shelf
    · Place Kiln Shelf Supports, Shelf and Shelf Paper into Kiln

Step 2: Adding Glass Stringer or Noodles
Snap and position the stinger or noodles to fit across the seam of the 2 dichroic circle halves and add other 2 stringers/noodles across as desired. Use Fuser's Glue to hold together and cap with Clear circle. Allow to dry to at least 10 minutes or until bonded.

Note: By using 2 different dichoric circles cut in half and matched up alternating, you get two different color spectrums on each half of the circle. It also means that you can make 2 for this project or a separate pendant. We used a transparent stringer in a root beer color to lay over the dichroic glass and seam.

Step 3: 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.

Step 4: Kiln Firing Process- Tack Fuse - 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. Position Black Bear as desired, centered. You can use more Fuser's Glue if you want to insure it holds position.

Step 5: Finish Project - Clean and dry the glass. Apply Triolyse glue to bail and position on back of the glass, positioning it carefully in the center or the corner. The glue will reach its maximum strength in 6 hours.
