instructions

1. Christmas Snowflake Decoration - 1. Download our snowflake templates and re-size as required, or draw your own designs to suit the different-sized discs. To engrave a glass disc, place over the template and secure it with a little low-tack tape. Using the Dremel Hobby 7700 fitted with the 7103 diamond wheel point, trace over the snowflake motif to engrave onto the glass disc.
   
   2. Having outlined the shape, remove the disc from the template and lay on dark paper so that the engraving shows up clearly. Correct any shaky or thin lines by working over them again, smoothing and thickening them as necessary. When finished, brush away any dust and buff the disc with a soft lint-free cloth.
   
   3. Using a fine permanent marker, draw snowflakes onto the mirror discs using the downloaded templates as a guide. Engrave the snowflakes onto the mirror discs using the Dremel Hobby 7700 fitted with the 7103 diamond wheel point. Buff the engraved mirrors as before.
   
   4. Use your Dremel Hobby 7700 with 7103 Diamond wheel point to engrave spirals and stripes onto your selected glass dropper decorations.
   
   5. Loop fine ribbon through the hole of a glass disc or glass dropper, then thread on a few beads, sandwiched between rondelles (these are a specific type of bead). Use the Dremel Gluegun 930 and clear glue to stick the engraved mirror discs back-to-back above the beads, sandwiching the ends of the ribbon in between.
   
   6. To finish, thread on a rondelle and another bead then knot the ends to complete your hanging ornament.
