Q: Hi, I’m interested in making small faux dichroic glass pieces.  Where might I find directions and a list of supplies needed?  Are kits available? Looking forward to hearing from you….

A: We don’t carry any kits making Dichroic Glass but we do carry a product called Magic Glos that can be used to create the effect of dichroic pieces.  For further instructions on creating faux dichroic glass I’d suggest looking into Lisa Pavelka’s method of creating faux dichroic glass using polymer clay and Mylar-backed foils.
