Bottle looks cool with the wire. Something else that works on the wire front is copper wire. Just grab a cat5 cable you would use for a computer and strip all the plastic off. Cut it up and pick it up like frit, or make a bullet and wrap it around it while it is hot without cutting it like you would a body wrap.
It will produce different things..You have been warned. I have also made a mesh with it and picked it up like a color cup. That was interesting...veddy interesting.
The glow snot as I like to call it is going to take some tweaking. It works but it has issues. It is going to take some playing around with to find the right way to apply it. I think you will have fun with it. My suggestion is to make a paperweight out of it first, then try a simple shape. The hardest part is picking it up and keeping it on the glass. It does not melt in like a glass powder.
thanx right on dude ! i'm going to try copper next...i want to get some silver foil too..and gold fuming. this "snot" you got..is it glass or a paint ? i just got my glow glass today..it's real glass..c.o.e. 96..from glow glass llc...let u know how it works out..
