Tech Tips — Aventurine

Quick Tip You can fill textured glass with powder to make your own unique sheet glass! In this example, I used Black Granite Herringbone Ripple Irid (100-HR71) 3mm 100-HR71 sheet glass over 3mm Clear 1101 and Light Aventurine powder 1412. Sift powder over the glass, filling up the crevices. Then use a piece of stiff cardboard to run over the surface of the glass, exposing the high areas of the Irid. Place on top of clear and full fuse! In this example, Reed Glass 1101-43 was used with 3 different powder colors. The difference here is hairspray must be used on the glass before...

Light Aventurine Green (1412) has the most ‘glittery’ quality. If you cap it with certain transparent colors, you can make your own Aventurines! Here are some examples of the colors I’ve capped 1412 with: 1464 1116 1823 1215 1205 1125 1137 Test your own combos, and make magic!
