11/18/10 – Glass Sifter – There are a few types of sifters used in glass fusing. You can purchase sifters for sorting or for embellishing your glass.

Glass Sifters come in various sizes and will enable you to sort your frit into different sizes. These are fantastic when you are making your own frit from larger pieces of glass. Once sorted into the assorted sizes, the glass can then be stored in plastic bags. Mark the glass indicating the color and size.

Other sifters, such as purchased or homemade types, are great for adding a sprinkling of powder or fine frit over your design. They will enable you to add an even coating of the frit.
