Materials:

Begin by choosing an image for the front of your lamp. Next, choose glass to compliment the colors in the image. For our lamp we used Spectrum Rough Rolled Grape and Deep Aqua for the sides and top and Clear Sandblasted glass for the back panel and flower accents.

Print your image on the Color Slide according to the manufacture’s instructions. Cut your image to size, leaving a narrow border of unprinted paper around the image.

Fill the container with 2”of warm water. Place the image in the water and gently unroll. Soak for 30 sec. or until the image slides easily from the paper backing. Meanwhile, using a soft brush, apply a coat of water to the inside of the KraftyBlok™ where you want to place the image. This will make it easier to adjust the image when it is placed.

Remove the image from the water and lay it slick side up on your work surface. Gently lift the image from the water and place it face-down on top of the backing paper. (The adhesive side should be up.) Loosely roll the image and place it in the KraftyBlok ™ image side down. Peel off the paper backing.

With a soft brush, adjust the image and smooth out any air bubbles. Blot with a paper towel and let dry.

Cure according to the instructions included with the Creative Image Color Slide™

Cut the Spectrum Grape and Deep Aqua glass into 1”x 5-1/2” strips for the sides and top of the lamp. You will need 3 strips of each color. Cut one 4-1/2”square of Clear Sandblasted glass for the back. Next, cut teardrop shapes for the flower petals from the Clear Sandblasted glass and round centers from the Grape and Deep Aqua.

Apply a dime size drop of silicone adhesive to the corner area of the shiny side of the Clear Sandblasted Square. Attach the square to the back of the KraftyBlok™. Glue one Grape and one Deep Aqua strip side by side on each of the two sides and the top of the KraftyBlok™. Use cellophane tape to hold the glass in place until the adhesive dries then remove the tape.

On the image side of the lamp, apply the teardrop flowers, again applying the silicone adhesive to the shiny side.

Apply the self-adhesive rubber feet to the bottom corners of the KraftyBlok™. This will allow room for the lamp cord and provide stability.

You can now wire the lamp if you like or use a LED candle. We used a candle lamp cord, available at your local home improvement store. Using the plastic cap from the hole in the KraftyBlok™, cut an opening large enough toaccommodate the fixture. Clip into place. Insert the plastic cap and fixture into the lamp .
