Thanks for posting! I purchased some copper carbonate from a small glass products vendor and it came with no instructions. I’m going to give it go now after watching your video.

This is great, but yes a little slow and lacking details. I'm assuming you used 3mm glass on bottom and also topped it with a 3mm sheet. It would also be helpful to share the ratio of Copper carbonate, water and painting medium.

Thank you, I used UGC painting medium (and water), but any water-based medium will work fine

I have just completed a dish but have some larger bubbles which spoil it a little. Would it be possible to let me know your firing schedule for this please .

Sorry to hear that. I used this Super Bubble Squeeze schedule: www.warm-glass.co.uk/kiln-schedules-cms-74.html. I also added some very small chunks around the edge (as I explained in the video)

You can also try to paint a thinner coat of copper carbonate mix, it will cause less bubbles

Thank you so much for this video. Can you please explain the type of paint you added to the carbonate? Is it just plain acrylic paint you can buy at a craft store? 👍🐢

Thank you. It is not paint it is medium for glass enamels. You can buy it at Unique Glass Colors or Colors for Earth. Or you can even mix your own. Mix water and CMC, you can find it in a pottery supply store or even in your grocery store in the baking section

I don´t know, maybe the tiny bubbles (made with copper carbonate) would disappear? The intention was to get bubbles, but not huge bubbles.

Does the copper carbonate have a bluish color? A ceramic artist cautioned about the use of copper carbonate. Wear a mask.

Yes, it is dark turquoise. Always wear a mask when you work with oxides, glass powders, fibers, enamels or anything that it is possibly dangerous to inhale.

When you glue the stencil to the glass, you mentioned hairspray....are you just spraying (like an aerosol or pump spray bottle) or are you using a liquid hairspray and painting it on the back of the stencil, then laying on top of the base glass to dry??? How long does it take to dry? I'm new to this but I love the concept and would like to try it. Thanks :)

I used aerosol and sprayed it on I think and laid the wet side down on top of the glass. I am sorry I don´t remember how long it took for it to dry. Thank you

Are there other compounds that you can use for other colors? I want to mix my own and not glassline and other mixed product (don't use it enough)?

I am not sure, but you can always try oxides (iron oxide for example)

How much copper carbonate do you use please?
@lenabeckeus6322

So the mix (water, paint medium, and copper carbonate) has an (unwhipped) cream consistency. You have to stir all the time, the copper carbonate is heavy and will fall down to the bottom.
