Step 1 - Remove Glass
To keep from breaking the precut pieces of glass, remove them from the package using an X-acto knife.

Step 2 - Fuse Dragonfly Body
Clean Glass: Use Alcohol or Dish Washing Detergent. Then dry and set aside on a clean piece of paper or cardboard.

Clean & Prep Kiln Shelf: Apply Kiln Wash (Shelf Primer) or cut a 5 inch square of hi-fire shelf paper.

Lay 6 System 96 Nuggets in a line on the kiln shelf. Make sure the nuggets touch. Full fuse the nuggets to form the dragonfly body using the Full Fuse firing schedule below.

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. 

Step 3 - Foil Glass Pieces
Use 7/32” copper foil to foil each dragonfly wing piece. Wrap a piece of foil around the dragonfly body where the wings will be attached. See picture for placement. Position the glass in the center of the foil, wrapping the entire piece. Overlap the foil where the ends meet about 1/8”. Use a fid or lathkin to burnish the foil. Burnishing smoothes the edges of the foil and adheres the sticky side of the copper foil tape to the glass.
