Preparation and Usage Starting Skills

Project Steps

This design used the hover and press method to place stencil images in spots where the necessary view is obscured by stencil borders. The technique is done by placing stencils sticky side up, holding the glass over the stencil and maneuvering it in air before pressing it down onto the stencil.
After preparing the glass, stand the icebergs up on their edge. Once stable, mark the center of bottom edge on the back of the glass.
Use the hover and press method to position the stencil images onto the front of the icebergs where you desire.
Follow the etching cream instructions to etch the designs onto the icebergs.
Optional- After thoroughly cleaning the glass, use a tweezer to place the self-adhesive jewels into desired locations on the glass.
