Jewelery makers/ craft lovers - HELP!- how do i make wafer/glass dome pendants?
i kno u can buy kits with tutorials on etsy but i just want to have a general idea, please if u kno how just give me a few tips.
i kno i need adhesive and 'diamond glaze' (what is that?) and glass wafers or domes, paper, and a metal 'bail' of some sort.
Is there anything else? what do i do with the glaze? i assume i stick the paper to the back of the glass and then cover it in the glaze?
i appreciate any tips, thank u! xx
There are several ways to make clear "domes" over images (and other things).
You'll usually need some kind of adhesive to hold the paper image down on the base of whatever you're using, and you may also need to seal some images that could bleed (a couple of light coats of clear acrylic spray should work, and some people use that first, then follow with the clear medium before adhering to the base).
After that, you can use a permanent "white glue" (diluted 3-4 to one with water) which is basically the same thing as decoupage mediums sold at stores (Royal Coat, ModPodge) or you can use a clear acrylic like a polyurethane...several coats of those won't yield a "domed" top, but they will give a clear glossy coating.
If you specifically want the domed top though, you'll want to use a "dimensional" white glue like Diamond Glaze or other brands, or you can use a 2-part epoxy resin (or even a 2-part epoxy glue if the area is small).
The dimensional white glues will need to be sealed though (with polyurethane, etc.), where the epoxies won't.
(I'm not sure why they're asking for glass "wafers" --thin disks, I presume-- or domes if they're using a finish which will result in a dome. Perhaps they're giving you several ways to encase the images underneath a clear hard covering?)
There's more info on Diamond Glaze and other brands of dimensional white glue on this page, if you're interested:
http://glassattic.com/polymer/finishes.htm
(...click on *Dimensional* under the "Other Acrylic/water-based Finishes" category)
You can get more info about doing both those things online**, or you can check out these pages at my site for some lessons, etc.:
http://glassattic.com/polymer/finishes.htm
(... same as link above, but click on different categories)
http://glassattic.com/polymer/other_materials.htm
(...click on "Coating" for this use, and perhaps more on epoxy resins in general)
**for example, this project for Glossy Accents (another brand of dimensional white glue) shows how to do something similar over an image:
http://www.rangerink.com/tips/tips_accents.htm
(you could also go to the websites of other brands and see if they have projects too)
