Project Steps

1. This design was etched in stages.The technique allows the use of a particular stencil image multiple times on the same project when you don't have enough to etch all simultaneously. Additionally, it enables stencil images to be placed in closer proximity than the stencil borders would otherwise permit.
2. After preparing the glass, on the front of the plate, measure and draw two intersecting centerlines to divide the plate into 4 equal quarters. See the centerline tutorial if necessary. Draw a swirl beginning at the intersection point in the middle and curving out to the plate edge on the third line.
3. Turn the plate face down. All snowflakes will be etched on the back of the plate along the outside edge of the curve line. Place a large snowflake on the intersection point on the back of the plate and all along the swirl line to define the edge.
4. Follow the etching cream instructions to etch these snow flakes onto the glass. Continue the process of adding and etching snowflakes in batches, keeping close proximity to each other, until the desired look is achieved.
