A 9 1/2" round floral painted and fused insert for a metal stand. The design is outlined with Unique Black MUD, and various parts of the design are painted onto three different sizes of glass circles using Unique Glass Colors. The three circles are then fused together into one piece that fits into the stand. This technique provides more life, depth, and texture to the finished piece.
