While shopping at Habitat for Humanity's Restore, I found several pieces of glass that had once been parts of lighting fixtures, and recycled them into sun catchers.  

Here's how:


1. Remove residue & fingerprints to insure proper adhesion of paint.



2.  Paint with Radiant Gels Dimensional Paint


3. Place on foil or old cookie sheet, paint side up.


4. Bake @ 200 degrees for 45 min.  Turn oven off.  Allow to cool in oven.


5.  Coat paint with Primary Elements Clear Gloss Gel. Return to oven and repeat step 4.







6.  Add wire bale.



7. Use strong cord to add found objects. 






Hang and enjoy!
