Method
 

Preparation
  1. Measure and cut the colored glass panes into the required shapes for the apple and rainbow using the ruler.
  2. Lay out the cut pieces on your work surface to visualize the final design.
Assembly
  1. Apply the adhesive to the edges of the glass pieces where they will connect using a paintbrush.
  2. Press each piece together gently and hold until they adhere. Use tape if necessary to secure them while they dry.
  3. Create a frame for your suncatcher using the hanging wire.

Notes

Ensure clean edges before applying adhesive. Take your time to let the glue cure completely. Experiment with colors for unique designs.
