Chroma Circles – 30 mm

To build your Suncatcher:

1. First, select an acrylic shape (they are available here)
   • These  are made of 3mm or 4.5mm clear acrylic (also known as Perspex).
   • You can choose to have a top hole, a bottom hole, or both.
   • You can use some of your own stash to decorate them, or use stained glass or beads – the choice is yours!
2. Remove the protective paper on one side, and glue your tesserae on with a weatherproof, clear-drying adhesive. I recommend Prep Multi-use adhesive.
   • TIP: you can draw a design on the protective paper on the BACK side of your piece with a sharpie. Remember, it will appear in reverse from the front.
   • Make sure you leave your hanging hole clear.
3. Use our Suncatcher wire, thread on some Tail beads, and add a tail weight
4. Use Crimp beads to make the hanging loops, and secure the beads
5. Squeeze the beads onto your selected wire with a pair of crimping pliers
6. Attach a swivel & hook – I have a few different choices:
   • an “S” Hook and a Hanger Swivel or
   • a Combination Hook & Swivel
7. Voila!

You can use No Days Adhesive film with Acrylic sheets in the oven. This video is from America, so the temps have to be adjusted – 260°F is roughly equivalent to 120°C.
