Our favorite cabinet maker in town, Cabinet Genies, yes, the one who realized all my crazy furniture ideas, has a new logo. I liked it so much that I wanted to create a plaque for him in glass.
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.
