  By Khadija's Creative Mind on September 5th, 2012
Assalam Alaikum,
I am very excited to share this post Today, Its the first post on my new webpage & starting with Bismillah…the translation of this calligraphy(you can see on glass) is;
In The Name Of Allah(God), The Most Beneficent & The Most Merciful
So here my first post is starting with the Name of Allah Almighty..
I share my last tutorial post at 14 august & now its 7th September..Ooh..long time, actually I was busy during Ramadan & then Eid celebrations, that’s why I was not having much time for making a tutorial post. well Now I am back

My Today’s Tutorial post is in fact a sudden post, I made this tutorial by chance! 
one of my Instagram follower from Spain request me for making a gift for the marriage of his brother & sister in Pakistan. So I made these wall hangings as a work order. I feel so nice when they appreciate it a lot by saying that its much & more perfect as they were thinking

Now see how is my effort..

I made two wall hangings & these are big frames, I did glass paint calligraphy & glass mosaic on border..

Taking a picture of any mirror thing is not an easy job..I realize while working on this tutorial..

PROCESS

You will need to have;
Framed Mirror
glass paints
Led outliner
Paint brushes
For Mosaic;
Transparent Glue(modpodge/movileth German glue)
Broken glass pieces
Applicator
Rubber gloves

I choose antique frames,golden & dark brown
I use golden outliner & trace the calligraphy design on mirror with tracing sheet.
Then I apply the led & left until dry(for a few hours)

It was the first coat of red crystal line glass paint.

The First coat completed

First of all you will have to measure the center of the mirror,then start painting. I use marker line.

The First coat & then the second coat result.you can see the difference above!!

Here are my paintbrushes gifted by Plaid. I use one calligraphy stroke brush & one slim tip.

After Paint, mosaic work starts now!
I broke a 8mm glass piece & pick its bold pieces(be sure to wear rubber glove)
Now paste a thick layer of glue on glass as a border, start pasting glass pieces as a mosaic design!

After 24 hours the glue will be dry totally, then You will have to apply another layer of glue over glass pieces & wait a few more hours until dry. Then paint it with turquoise glass paint.

Late night I complete the work..Next morning I saw the wall hangings on my work table & I was…waooo..in fact MashaAllah..

Here is the packing material & sheets with some ribbons & bows..But I forgot to take the picture of its packed look. I thought I did but when I was uploading pics from camera,there was not any gift packed image & the package was sent to them.so I feel really OOoops!! :( 
I hope you liked the tutorial & my work.
