In order to prevent the decal from firing off, you need to cover it with clear glass. Previously we used to burn off the carrier foil at 1200°F first and then covered it with a sheet of clear glass. But this way you can save a step. Just apply your decal as usual and then cover it with a layer of fine clear frit. In the above picture I used powder but the powder shows a bit, while fine frit works just as well and you won’t see any haze.  This way you save one firing step and you have more design freedom.

After seeing a workshop picture where they used these LED light pads, I thought I want to try one. And guess what; it works great with white cardboard paper and best of all, with Papyros shelf paper.

I traced the oil lamp with a pencil onto Papyros Shelf Paper and cut it out with a pair of scissors to create a subtle relief in the glass. I also copied a second oil lamp to a cardboard paper which I cut out to create a stencil for the oil lamp in the logo.

At one point the creative part took over and I forgot to take more pictures. Therefore this is not a complete how to lesson, but if you have any questions, please leave them in the comment section below.

And if you like to make a sign for your favorite company, we are here to help. We even lowered the price for the Laser transfer paper to help with your “logo in glass” creation.
