Dichroic Glass Dots
 
Wanting to use dots of Dichroic glass to accent off mandrel fairy wings or butterfly wings. Any advice as to where to buy or make my own. I made some Dichroic stringer by putting clear on the opposite side of the Clear coating on Dichro strips. They turned out OK, will try to use them to make dots today. Thanks, Carolyn

Facebook Group Murrini and More for COE 104 ... Cindy Bos. She also does boro ones occasionally.

I have some COE 90 ones in my etsy.

So that's where you can get them.

To make them: cut sheet dichro into little squares and do a full fuse on them (dichro side down)... they self round into little dots. Easy peasey if you don't mind doing all the cutting of the little squares.

I use up my small itty pieces of scrap this way.
