This is such a fun project to do with kids...or by yourself!

First, find your marbles!
I seriously lost my marbles...it took me 30 minutes to find them!
Wish I could say the same about my memory...
You should only use the marbles that are clear glass...
not the opaque white or black ones...
We put them in a pyrex dish and baked them for 20 minutes in a 400* oven.
As soon as we removed them, the kids scooped them
carefully and put it in a pan of ice water!
You can hear them sizzle!
We drained the ice water to gaze upon the shattered glass...

Held in the light they are spectacular!

They look awesome!
