Does anyone know whether it's possible to get clear adhesive wall
hangers, like the flat ones sometimes used to hang plates up, and,
if so, where from please?
They need to be quite small, as the things I have to hang are only
an inch or so wide. They are my fused glass miniature scenes but,
because the glass is transparent, a normal hanger would show through.
So it would need to stick to the back of the glass mini-scene (which is
flat) and have a hangy bit on to hang it up by, oh and be quite small.
Any assistance gratefully appreciated.
I have drilled holes in some of them, with a glass drill, but for some reason
with the ones I've made recently the drill bit won't go through the glass -
something to do with the fusing temperature the teacher reckons. Also,
the holes become expensive to drill as the drill bits don't last very long
and are costly.
Thanks,
Fishy

Fishy love your craft work, they would make unusual buttons if you can get holes in them at the right time. The owls are cute too, you are very clever.

I've got to be honest, I'm not really that clever, they are a lot easier to make than
they look. The lady who teaches at my class is the clever one really, as firing them
at the right temperature and for the right time in the kiln is what really makes them
go right.
I did try some buttons but they were very small and fiddly. Getting the holes right
was a mare too as they wouldn't keep still in the clamp and were too titchy to hold
in place with my fingers, unless I wanted holes in them too!
