You won’t receive anything when ordering this, but all the instructions are here!
To build your Suncatcher:
- 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!
- 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.
- Use our Suncatcher wire, thread on some Tail beads, and add a tail weight
- Use Crimp beads to make the hanging loops, and secure the beads
- Squeeze the beads onto your selected wire with a pair of crimping pliers
- Attach a swivel & hook – I have a few different choices:
- an “S” Hook and a Hanger Swivel or
- a Combination Hook & Swivel
- Voila!
