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: Remove Glass. To keep from breaking the precut pieces of glass, remove them from the package using an X-acto knife.

Decide how you will hang your ornament.  

NOTE: If you choose the High Temperature Wire #17:  Item# 41184  then you will need to cut and shape the wire to be placed under the project when putting into the kiln so the Glass will fuse over it.

· Step 2 - 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)
    · Cut Shelf Paper to fit shelf
    · Place Kiln Shelf Supports, Shelf and Shelf Paper into Kiln

· Break Glass Noodles and Glass Stringers into small pieces to fit and set aside

· Use Toothpick or plastic Cocktail fork to put 3 "tiny" drops of glue and evenly distributed for Hearts, Glass Stringers and Glass noodles to adhere.

· Step 4: Note:  It is important to note that you need to make sure to touch all glass pieces by the outer edges to avoid finger oil or prints on the surface of the glass.

· Step 5  - 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 6 - Kiln Firing Process- Full Fuse
