Fine lines on glass
by: Cheryl

Hello Ramona,
Cheryl here from YDPR...

They may be using glass paint markers. DecoArt carries a bake-able glass paint marker you may find useful.

Another artist may be using a fine liner brush to create the detail you describe.

And other artists may be using glass paint leading which creates raised areas that can the be flooded with glass stains.

I hope this helps.
