"Hi, this is Cheryl from Expert Village and I'm going to be teaching you how to make fused glass jewelry today. So, lets check it out. Alrighty, so this is how we're going to make a fused glass pendant today. You can make it any shape or size, whatever color you want but today I'm just going to make little circles today because they're the easiest I think. Basically what I do is I start out with a piece of glass, a little piece of d?cor, and stick it down and I draw out my circle, which basically I started doing and I just basically sketch them out. Cause I'm only going to grind them later and make them nice and smooth. So I'm just going to do a couple of them, and this right here is a glass cutter. I'm going to be using this to cut a straight line down and then cut it apart. Basically you always got to make sure that you go away from you. Do a nice little score line like that and you just cut it off like that. Now we have our little circle available and ready and just cut that down. Basically what I do is just separate all of them, real fast. Cut it out, now you have all your little circles ready. What you can do is you can go around each never like circle with a glass cutter if you wanted to which is pretty tedious, but I like to Dave all the little pieces of decor because you use them for basically anything and everything. You can refuse them, you never refuse to refuse, ha ha, corny joke."
