So with copper foil you don’t have to account for that when drawing! The thinner your lines are on the pattern, the better actually! It’s only when you are using lead came that you need to create your lines the match the width of the came. I haven’t ventured into this territory enough to write about it, YET 🙂 I hope this helps!

Hi! TYSM! I’m going to try to start putting out more to go with the blogs. That way people have multiple ways to get the info. & Actually I’ve since started using Liva Finishing Polish and I find that is 1. just all around easier to work with & 2. doesn’t take off as much of the black patina! I’m going to be updated this article soon and the video on YouTube.

In the YouTube comments for this video you say you’re going to skip the clarity polish to see if it makes it darker. Did it? Is this still a step in your process or have you removed it now?

Hope you make some more videos soon!

Thank you so much for taking the time to comment <3 I'm happy to hear the time I've put into this blog was worthwhile and is helping people 🙂

Hi Madelyn! Sorry my reply is so tardy. I’ve done a terrible at keeping up with this blog last year, but will be coming back in full force this year!

As for your questions, you apply the came first. Think of the came just as you do your solder. ,it’s all the metal elements of your piece. Once all of your center solder is complete, you add your came – and then you can proceed with the rest of the steps to finishing your piece. Hope this helps (and wasn’t too late)

It makes me so happy to know that my tutorial was helpful 🙂 thank you so much for taking the time to comment <3

Hi Josh! Great question! It’s completely up to you on how specific you want to get. If you have a piece of 12×12 glass that you used in your project, and you used say – a 5×5 inch piece of it – you could get super detailed and divide the square inch by the total amount the sheet cost. This would give you a price per square in. OR if you’re like me and you’re a little more lax with your material pricing, you can simply use an average per square inch based on a typical price per a 12×12 sheet of glass. I do this and then charge more for artisan or one-of-a-kind glass. I’m actually working on a commission now where we discussed one price, but because the glass I ended up going with is far more expensive, the final price will go up. Just keep in mind it’s totally up to you. There’s no wrong way to do it 🙂
