Preparation and Usage Starting Skills
Project Steps
- After preparing the glass, place the stencil onto the reflective side of the mirror. Follow the etching cream instructions to etch the design onto the mirror. Repeat this process to etch all 3 mirrors.
- Use a thin bead of clear glue all along the reflective top edge of the mirror to adhere it to the back of the tile. Do not apply pressure. No glue should be showing through the tile.
- Once completely set, cut an 9 inch piece of wire and fold it in half. Open the wire and place the top corner of the tile in the v of the wire. Press that point of the wire into the groove between the mirror and the tile and do the same with the wire on all 4 sides. Twist the two ends of the wire together one time at the point where they meet to secure the wire in place.
- Run the wire back down the groove on both sides again, back to the beginning, and twist them together at the point. Bend one piece into a small loop at the point and then twist the wires together a few times before cutting off the excess. Repeat this process with all the tiles.
- Choose the location on the necklace for all 3 tiles and use the jump rings to attach them to the chain in those locations.
