ALLISON KLINGER: On behalf of ExpertVillage.com, my name is Allison at Western Art Glass. And
we are into our next step of our stepping-stone making. In previous steps, remember, we had
our template. We had our mold drawn out. I've got a piece of dry wall; some people call
it sheet rock. This is my favorite work surface to work on. You can see spills, chemicals.
I cut on it. I've draw on it, and I don't even worry about it. It's a work surface,
okay? Anyway, there's our pattern. What we need to do is we need to actually bond it
to the dry wall. I like to use this glue. I just spray on, okay? And spray on a piece
of paper, okay? It is glue, and glue can go everywhere. So you can use some glue stick,
rubber cement, whatever. I'm literally going to put it down on this board. I'm just going
to run it over like this, okay? So it's nice and attached to my board. Next step I'm going
to do, this is vital for stepping-stone making. Make sure you got a pair of scissors around.
They're always handy in a shop. Clear, clear, clear, clear, clear contact paper, okay? You're
going to measure it out, take a guess, okay? You can get contact paper from Kmart, Costco,
any type of store like that. So anyway, we're going to do that. I'm not worried about anything
except it covers my pattern, okay? This stuff is like sticky on one side and not on the
other. How about that? So anyway, peel that off. And on the next segment, I'll show you
what to do with the sticky side of the contact paper. This is a booger to work with, as far
as to get the wax off the sticky, but we want sticky side up right now, okay? It will eventually
give way. Okay, sticky side up. I am not putting the sticky side onto my paper pattern. This
is really, really, really important, okay? Sticky side up. It might take you a minute
to do this. It's taking me a minute. If you have some help, it might help out. See you
next segment.
