B)   Carefully trace the lines with the black paint marker.

C)   Let dry.

 

Step 3:

B)   The ratio should be approximately one tablespoon of glue mixed with one teaspoon of paint.

 

Step 4:

A)   Flip the glass over to the back and place it on the template labeled “Paint on back of glass.” Make sure the glass sides line up with the border box on the template. Use tape to secure the glass in place. Note: The lines will be slightly offset.
