These great glass plates bring a holiday feeling into your home. They are simply made and impress with the exotic animals and intense colour combinations. Arranged with fruits, flowers or scented balls, they immediately catch the eye.
This is how the beautiful glass plates are made:
Cut the motifs with the tweezers. Clean the plates (remove dust and stains). Now turn the plates over so that the underside is on top. Place the cut motifs face down on the bottom of the plate. Now brush the straw silk with the napkin varnish or stick it on.
When painting, go beyond the motifs and also paint the clear glass. After everything has dried, these areas can be wiped with a little disinfectant to remove any unsightly varnish residue. This makes the lacquer slightly milky. The varnish can then be scraped off very easily without scratching the plates.
Finally, place the plates in the cold oven and bake at 160° C for approx. 30 minutes. Leave to cool in the oven. The plates can be washed by hand.
