A Puddle Platter from Puddle Cabochons? Sounds Odd! Fused Glass Project Tutorial.

I've had some black and white fused glass puddle cabochons for ages. Always wondered what to do with them and now was the time. Of course, a platter. What else should a fused glass artist make?

Plenty, actually. But I decided a platter would be cool. I hope you enjoy this project tutorial and please let me know your thoughts..
