Project Guide: Dots Plate
Base: 6x6" (any color)
Second layer border: two 1/2" x 6" strips; two 1/2" x 5" strips
Second layer dots: number and color of choice
Second layer filler: medium frit in choice of color
To assemble:
Clean all of your pieces
Glue the clear strips to the edges of your base to create a dam
Arrange glass blobs as desired
Fill with frit, using a brush to sweep frit into every nook and cranny. Because my blobs were taller than the edges, I didn't mound the frit. If you use smaller blobs, mound the frit slightly as it will settle when it melts.
Want bubbles? Use coarse frit and a regular fuse schedule.
Use a bubble squeeze program to fuse your plate blank.
Slump into the plate form of your choice.
I slumped mine upside down because I wanted the bumpy texture on the top.
