Flip and Fuse Technique
Here's SECRET TIP that Lori Moreno from Wilderness Glass has given me permission to share. Thank you, Lori!
Lori discovered that if you place a slice of rose murrini (6-8mm) on a little piece of 3mm clear (3/8 x 3/8) and fully fuse, then FLIP and FLATTEN, you’ll get a spectacular rose beautifully spread out, giving it an amazing look with new potential for all kinds of fusing projects or to be used as-is in jewelry or other projects. The final result is the flat rose murrini you see in the top two images. WOW!
I did the “flip and fuse” method where I snipped teardrops and placed them on 5mm clear then fully fused. (My murrini teardrops were not snipped very big…maybe around 3-4mm tall). 1. I put the teardrop Murrini in a flower shape on 5mm clear which was just rough cut into a circle with my nippers. 2. I fully fused them at 1450 with a 15 minute hold. 3. I took them out of the kiln and washed them off, then placed back in the kiln flipped over so the bottom (clear side) is now up and 4. fully fused again to get these cool circles.
This is an example of the same murrini can be used differently. In one technique the murrini was "Flip and Fused" to make it larger for the center of this sunflower. The lower left version is just a 6mm chip fully fused, then the lower right is the daisy in it's original form.
Fully fusing your murrini onto clear (even if you do not flip and flatten) gives your murrini an entirely new look! The underneath side will be the flat side, so you can flip them and contour or fully fuse them again or just add to your projects depending on what you want the final result to be.
This sample is how it looks before it is flipped and fused again.
This is flipped and fused.
This is a little snowflake is just simply fully fused onto a small black square. Love how it spreads out.
