Paper or Laminated decorations for Glass blocks? Where can I find these?

Question

I decorate lighted glass blocks, however I am having a hard time locating either paper or laminated decorations to adhere to the 8x8 blocks for different occasions, holidays, birthdays etc. Can anyone help me find these on line to purchase? or maybe a craft store? thanks

Answer 1

I have decorated quite a few of these and there are several good ways to do it. I actually drill a hole in the end of them and put the clear mini lights inside.(don't know if you do or not) On the outside, I have used stickers, rub-ons or whatever. You can also print some great art or pictures, sayings, whatever off your computer onto clear transparency sheets and then decoupage them onto the sides. I have also seen fabric modge-podged on the sides. Anything you can dream up, you can use on these. they are so very versatile. I have several that a friend made that plug in outside and are on my steps that are Halloween. She used only the orange colored lights in them and they are great. You could change the color of the lights for each season!

Answer 2

You can make your own, if you have a Xyron machine. Insert the cartridge that is laminated on the front with adhesive on the back sheet. Run your design through the machine, cut out the different shapes, peel it off the backing paper, and attach to the block. The cartridges can often be picked up at Michael's for 40% off, with a coupon.

My favorite place is for vinyl stickers www.vinylwallstickers.com They can make pictures, sayings or a combo. Just ask.

Good Luck
