Fusing Holes with Chalk
I’ve gotten a number of questions about fusing with chalk to make holes, so I thought I’d give it at try and see how it goes. I started with chalkboard and sidewalk chalk, both of these were from my local grocery store.
One of the questions I get very frequently is “How do I make holes in bottle bottoms if I don’t want to drill?” And I get it, drilling is only a tiny bit fun. So, I did some experimenting and found I could fuse loops into my bottle bottoms. While they aren’t the same as a hole, they are a solid workaround for drilling, and sometimes, a more attractive
option.
Fusing with bottle bottom molds is easy and surprisingly versatile. To start, you need a bottle bottom mold. We have a lovely variety in our online store, with new designs being issued regularly.
