#3 Scrap Dichroic Glass in Molds
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 19 มิ.ย. 2017
- This video shows dichroic glass being used to fill several fused glass jewelry molds (Colour de Verre, Creative Paradise, Slumpys). It was originally several Periscope broadcasts that totaled allmost 1.5 hrs of video. But I have reduced it to less than 16 minutes. Enjoy.

So beautiful. I am sure the kids are over the moon when they get them. GOD BLESS YOU🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
OMG! It hurts to watch you use all that dichro as “scrap”! I know it will be gorgeous but wow! 🐢
You donate your jewelry to foster kids. Susan you are amazing ☺
I love that you donate your scrap glass jewelry. Very inspiring!
Karen Szczytko I hope it inspires you to do the same. 😁
Very nice to give these nice things to Foster kids. Thanks for all the info! BTW Patty Gray molds says to have kiln shelf paper at the bottom of the mold to prevent air bubbles :-)
Thank you!!
So pretty!
Great video! Do you have one on preparing the molds such as what coating/paper? to use? I haven't bought any molds yet but am interested in what else I might need to use them. I'm using microwave kilns, 1 small & 1 large so just starting out in the 'acquiring' end :) Love that you donate your items. So generous of you but I can tell from your videos that you are a very giving person. Thanks a bunch!
This might help. th-cam.com/video/4_FW78Bagac/w-d-xo.html
And do you need to re-coat the molds between each firing?
I wonder if you have ever tried using dichroic frit to help fill in the voids and prevent the glass from pulling in and creating gaps. I find it very helpful especially in jewelry molds around the posts so I can be sure to have enough weight to prevent them from pulling in without using too large of a piece of scrap glass that minimizes or eliminates the hole.
Cindy Lucas great tip!
Where do you buy dichroic frit?
What kind of clippers do you use? and where do you get the dichro scrap? That is a lot of dichro! This is a great tutorial So great that you give pieces to foster kids, very generous. I wish I were closer to you
Annie Kuhn I got the mosaic tile nippers from eBay. The dichroic scrap is just my leftovers. 😁. I hope this encourages others to do something similar for the foster kids in their area❣️
Hi Susan, When you refired your molds did you spray them again? Thank you❣️
When you add more dichroic glass after the initial firing and fire it again, what firing schedule would you use the second time?
Are you using different thickness of dicro in one mold?
Sally Timko yes
Beautiful! What do you call the nippers you were using?
Someone already asked and you answered, but I was looking at your fingers and wondered if you were using ZYP or some type of boron nitrite.
Michael Blackston my understanding is ZYP & MR-97 are both boron nitrate. I hope that answers your question.
How do you know how much to put in mold
What do you mean with firing polish , By the way I love you work and ideas!
Malu Nicolette thank you! Fire polishing is done in the kiln about 1350 F. It's an easy way to get shiny edges on your glass without cold working. 🔥
Where do u get your molds from
Which Kiln Wash do you use in your jewelry molds? Love your videos!
Debbie Barnett I usually use a boron nitrite spray like MR-97 for the jewelry molds so I don’t lose any detail.
Thanks Susan...appreciate that info.
Where did u buy your cool molds?
I believe she said some of them were Paradise molds (which is probably the name of the company), at least one is a Patty Gray mold, & others I recognize as Colour deVerre molds (which I use). Each of those 3 businesses can be found online & you can buy directly from them. If you have a business license, you can open accounts with wholesale companies & get better prices on the molds & everything else.
Don't know why Susan didn't answer you, but I hope you don't mind I did. Hope it helps!
It is Creative Paradise Glass molds. . . . www.creativeparadiseglass.com. You can also find Patty Gray molds on Creative Paradise Glass's website. The others were Colour deVerre and possibly slumpy molds. I have all 3 companies jewelry molds.
your camera is way to far away to really see it
I agree. This was filmed years ago live in Periscope. My camera angle has gotten much better.
Could do better. Much better. Sorrry.
