now that we have all materials lets start

your going to want to figure out what image you want a decal of this can be anything you want
but keep it simple! what i chose was my company logo

Transfering

this is a simple step all we need to do is take are digital copy of image and transfer it onto paper
take your monitor and lay it down flat with the image opened at the size you want lay your pane of glass over the image 
and then the paper and trace the outline
