Here you can see where I've started applying the glass. I like the way it compliments the seed beads. I am using GE II silicone to apply the glass and I have sprinkled it with some glitter to give it some sparkle...can't really see it in the photos.
For the top part of the skirt, I used Apoxy Sculpt and beads to make a petal detail, this covers the uneven edges of the glass.
I use the same method to create the bodice. I really love the beadwork and it works so well, pressing the beads into the Apoxy Sculpt.
I just have to clean it up and them move on to finishing the edges of glass on the skirt.
Stay Tuned!!!
