Product Description

Capture memories in fusible glass!
This is the Second Edition of this popular book that teaches home hobbyists, professional studios, schools and artists how to easily, safely and inexpensively fire high quality photographs, graphics and text onto their fused glass projects. This book takes all the guess work out of this exciting new process giving fool proof step by step instructions and project ideas. Unlike other image fusing processes that require mirror image printing, this is a simple right side up application. The book is filled with beautiful full color detailed photographs of exciting projects such as Wedding Invitation Plates, Family Portrait Brooches, Kids Own Drawing Tiles, Illustrated Stained Glass Panels and Treasured Family Recipe Platters. All fired images are permanent and food safe. Also included is an updated extensive List of Printers that work with this process as well as a Ramp and Hold Firing Chart for firing glass in a Ceramic Kiln plus instructions for firing images on glass using a Microwave Kiln.

The new expanded Second Edition includes:
1. Celsius/Fahrenheit temperature conversions
2. Broader range of image fusing temperatures
3. Expanded Approved Printer List
4. Decal paper conservation technique with diagram
5. Fusing images on dichroic and iridized glass
6. Clarified troubleshooting solutions

Projects in the additional images are by the author and artist Terrie Banhazl.

When and how did you get started in stained glass? Ive been interested in stained glass for as long as I can remember. As a child, I would sit in churches and watch the (often) biblical depictions come to life when a stray ray of sunlight cast its illumination our way. Sun shadows dancing. I dabbled in many media over the years, trying to find an outlet for some of the visions careening inside, but none of them took. Drawing, painting - even watercolours - no amount of professional training could guide my hand in a satisfactory way. But then there was the glass. I lived abroad for a few years, and wound my way through Europe on my way back to the States when I finished my Peace Corps Service. My last international destination was Paris, where one of my closest friends lives as an organist. Two beautiful autumn

Chances are, right now, in reading this blog post, youre avoiding an overdue task. I too was avoiding a laundry list of work-related tasks in writing this. Procrastination is a part of life, and its certainly always been a part of mine. As a teenager, my parents would accuse me of putting off everything from piano practice to math homework. Id vehemently deny their charges hissing back, I work better under pressure. The truth was, I often felt overwhelmed, under-productive and anxious. Over the years, Ive been able to combat my avoidance issues using 4 tools. The trick is constantly reminding myself of these actions, because they do not come naturally to me. 1. Just Say No. I say yes to everything. Need someone to head up that event? Sure. Want me to design 12 posters for the Car Wash? No problem. Take your kid to daycare? Of course.
