Part 2: Making a Tempered Safety Crash Glass Mosaic

I really like layers of color under glass. Instead of a flat application of a single color, layering color adds more intensity, interest, and depth. This is one way of doing that: adding color to the back of the tempered/regular glass, and adhering it, paint-side down, to an already-colored substrate.
Here is a link to the Lumiere paints (this set doesn't have all the colours I used, but wasn't able to find a kit that had all of them): amzn.to/43tj3Hv
If you're wondering where I got the tempered glass: I found a set of glass shelves that were meant for a 5-tier table at a rummage sale.

That last break was so satisfying! Always great to see you on the 'Tube Miss Susan. 💔 = Love broken crash glass 🤣

Thanks, Donna! So fun to release all those pretty crystals!

I’ve always wondered if alcohol inks faded over time; thanks Susan!

[@SusanCrocenzi]

Good to “see” you, Rita! They’re weirdly finicky, especially the ones with red in them. For interior pieces, ometimes they fade, sometimes they don’t. Sunshine def fades them!

Thank you!

[@SusanCrocenzi]

You bet! Thanks for your comment!

Lumière paints are awesome. I’ve used them for years on polymer clay. A nice effect you get on the glass.

Hi Jan! Yes they are! I bet they look awesome on poly clay!
