Material to make top of fish head in mosaics.

by amie
(Gibsons BC Canada)

I am doing "Nemo" in stained glass mosaics - photo attached. I am stumped as to what to use for his "curls". That piece running down the top of his head. Wondering if you know of some type of aluminum that can be bent and snipped and then glued on??

Suggestions would be most welcome.

Answer

My suggestion would be either sheet copper or sheet aluminum. The sheet copper could be tinned first if you want a silver color.

You can't imagine how much I wish I had found your incredible website before I spent many hundreds of dollars on lessons, dvd's, tutorials, etc. I can tell that everything I need to know can be found here. All I can say is "Thank You!" Larry

I can't thank you enough for this site. The new search feature is amazing and it makes it so easy to find exactly what I am looking for. Thank you again! Laurie

Your site is fantastic! I took a six week class four years ago and recently started again (after forgetting almost everything I learned!). I have to say that your site is excellent and I can't wait to practice the techniques you've shown. Scarlet

I'm a subscriber to your "Stained Glass Gems" and I just wanted to say THANK YOU for your wonderful site! This is by far the best glass site I've run across. I recently purchased your publication on Patina FAQ and it's very helpful for me... I like to have hard copies of info so I added it to my library. Suzanna
