How Do You Make Tiles Out Of Recycled Glass?
When taking on home projects, it is important to know how to achieve your desired end result while following all instructions properly and safely. Making your own tiles out of recycled glass requires knowledge of the subject and great caution since very high heat and melting glass are involved. You can make just about anything out of recycled materials, but melting glass and making your very own tiles to be used in another home project will be great fun. Put lots of recycled glass shards inside your metal pot. Heat the oven to 500 degrees Fahrenheit. The higher the temperature, the quicker the glass pieces will melt. Put on your oven mitts and place the metal pot inside of the oven. If the oven is open-faced, stand back so that you do not receive any heat burns and be sure your mitts are thick enough so you don’t burn your hands. If it s a closed oven, place the pot inside and close the door. Pull the pot out before the glass starts to bubble and add your color with liquid food colorin
