- In this cabochon tutorial I will show you how to create cabochons and the best ways to avoid fading. Cabochons are great to make and can be used in mosaics, mixed media, glass on glass and jewellery projects.
Just be aware that pretty well anything will fade so these are only to be used inside and out of direct sun.
When using any products please read the manufacturers MSDS sheets to follow all safety requirements and ensure that the product is suitable for the materials, substrate and the environment its going into.

Great tutorial Peter! Thank you!
Thankyou very much for watching, you can buy them from ETSY or some jewellery stores. :)
Thank you!! Can't wait to try this.
Thankyou for watching, my pleasure. :)
Thank you, Peter! I have been wanting to learn this technique and you teach it perfectly.
Im glad you enjoyed it, thankyou for watching
Brilliant!
Thankyou very much. :)
Great info thank you
Thanks very much Devon, appreciate that. :)
PETERRRRRR!!!! Found you from Brenda's link on the Creative Group. Great video!! I LOVE how these turn out!! I subscribed and look forward to seeing more videos from you! P.S. I love the dishes back behind you in the opening of the video! Keep up the good work!!
Hiya Karen, Thanks heaps for coming across, I had no idea Brenda had put a link onto her website, Ill have a look. Thanks so much, the dishes I inherited they are Wedgewood. Glad you enjoyed the video appreciate it. :)
Fantastic tutorial. I really only do pieces for outside, do you have any suggestions that would make cabochons suitable.
Thankyou very much, appreciate that. Anything that is printed will eventually fade, you can seal the print with a UV protective that will help. The other alternative it to have a signwriter print them for you with solvent ink and instead of paper they would do it on a self adhesive vinyl, laminate them, but eventually it will also fade maybe 10 to 15 years depending on the environment there in and the cost would be prohibitive unless you were buying thousands. There are other methods of printing but its the cost that outweighs it all the time due to the size and the quantities needed to bring the cost down even on short run digital printing. :)
Hi Peter very informative. Is this the same technique for making your own paper backed glass tiles? I have had trouble with the paper wrinkling, even with some scrap booking papers? Instead of Mac glue I used Diamond glaze glue.
Thanks very much, I have used this technique for creating larger glass tiles, but its not suitable for outside. Diamond Glaze can yellow if exposed to considerable UV such as full sun. :)
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Thankyou so much. :)
Another great tutorial Peter, thank you! I just received my ready made photo glass cabochon. It looks different than yours. The picture has somehow a Glossy shine, like mother of pearl. Any idea how they could achieve this effect? I hesitate to use MAC in my metal bezel, but if it has your approval I will fallow your advice. Cheers Peter!
Thankyou so much Brigitte, I have no idea of the particular product you bought. Just remember as I mentioned to you, using Mac in my bezels worked for me however I cannot guarantee it will work with your bezels and strongly advise that you do a test first before proceeding. :)
@@TreasuryRoad Who would of thought that placing a Cabochon into a bezel can be that difficult, lol. Thanks Peter, I'll give it a go this weekend and wait for 2 weeks to see the result...fingers crossed! You know it just occur to me if I seal my Cabochon, then use Apoxie Sculpt instead of glue, could be a safer bet🤔. If all fails, I will start knitting some socks 😂
@@biddystar LOL So very true, I have used Apoxie Sculpt in a bezels as well I have created a couple of videos on that, however it depends on the look your are after, testing is always really good whenever you are trying different products that you haven't used before. Hopefully you wont have to begin knitting socks. lol :)
Peter where can you purchase the glass cabochon? (pre glued with image)
You can purchase them from Etsy or if you Google them other retailers will come up as well.
Hello. I'm new to making cabochon jewelry. I'm having a terrible problem though. I'm using Mod Podge Dimensional Magic to glue the glass cab to the paper artwork. I print my own artwork using Epson Presentation paper (basically photo matte paper) and getting beautiful print results. However, I'm getting silvery spots showing when gluing the cab to the paper. They're tiny and resemble shiny fish scales. Not everywhere, but enough to ruin the item. Do you ever have this problem using the Mac Craft Glue? This is the first I've heard of Mac Craft Glue. Thank you very much Peter.
Hi, l didn’t have any issues using MAC glue l use it for many different projects. I would perform a test using another type of clear glue such as a pva and test it on the same paper with the clear cabochon,. If the same issue arises l would think it’s more of a paper or ink issue that interacts with the moisture. I would also consider cleaning the cabochon with something like isopropyl if the issue happens with the pva. Process of elimination. 😊
They are air bubbles, not fish scales 😂 i am also looking for a solution for these.
Will this technique work with photo paper ?
Depends on the type, the details are in the video for best results. :)
MAC glue seems to be sold out everywhere, so I assume they must be out of business.
MAC Glue is a great glue and there is nothing else like it, unfortunately the resin that is used in MAC is no longer being sourced. So the company is developing a new MAC formula that is as good as the original or better. Hopefully it will be back in production first half of next year. The MAC glue company is alive and well. Thanks for watching and commenting. 😊
Thank you Peter for a great tutorial. I could not find the Mac that looked like yours but I did find a small bottle of Mac glue for glass on Amazon. Do you have a link for your glue? Thanks again. New subscriber.
Thankyou very much Marie. I don’t know which country you are in but you can go to www.macglue.com you can buy it from Marvelous Mosaics Fine Art in the USA as well.
Thankyou for subscribing as well. 😊
You have air bubbles, how do you stop this
When I make these I don't get air bubbles in them unless you picked up on something that I didn't see.
I still love books. I've tried reading novels etc on screen. Was not a fan!
Tfs & take care
Yes I agree, thankyou and take care as well. :)
