Love the look of dichroic glass jewelry but cannot afford the kiln for fused glass work? Well, there is a solution for that! Faux fused glass pendants using shrink plastic and alcohol inks. This amazing tutorial is by Tammy Tutterow.
This talented crafter demonstrates the most awesome combination of shrink plastic and alcohol inks I have ever seen to make one of a kind pendants. The final dipping with UTEE (Ultra Thick Embossing Enamel from Ranger Inks) really ups the ante with this technique.
Alternatively consider using some of the glazes like Diamond Glaze or Mod Podge.
