A Candy Cane Design



12/31/09 - Candy Cane - This candy cane pattern is the final pattern added to the Fused Glass Christmas page for this current year. Although most candy canes are made by twisting canes of candy together this one is simple to make out of glass. The pattern uses red Glassline paint to draw the thick lines across the base white glass. I have added some flakes of frit to enhance the color and add some depth and dimension to the glass. Before placing inside the kiln be sure to allow the paint to dry completely. Carefully remove any stray flakes of frit from the white section of the glass before finally fusing the glass inside the kiln.
