I'm featuring this project again today because I'm so excited to announce we finally have Mica Layers available for you.
Raw mica is mica rock straight out of the ground, when fired to high temperatures it changes colors to bright gold. The layers become easy to separate and then can be fused between layers of glass to give rich gold sparkly color to designs.
Our mica layers are already
fired to 2000, so you can just peel off some layers and get to fusing.
I tried different types and suppliers, and this is the one I like the best.

Some quick Studio news, I answered more reader questions, these about diamond hole saws, melting insulators, and custom molds.
Don't forget, you can always send questions via
the website, or just by hitting reply to this message.
And a quick look at what else I've been up to this week:
Have a great weekend!
