How do I decipher The size of crystals ?

For special effects

For special effects, you can control how the crystals will run on a piece by actually placing them in certain areas. If, for example, you want the crystals to run down only from the top rim of a piece, simply apply the normal number of coats of glaze and add just enough crystals around the top rim to obtain the desired effect.
