you can get it at various handicraft stores like, Hobby Lobby, and 
such . sometimes in the leaded glass section. they also usually have 
in it in adhesive tape of various widths. intriguing notion, but 
can't see worth the effort except as personal cool self expression 
and enrichment. to drill glass, you must continually spray with water 
to cool the bit and glass. i've used the "so-called" carbide glass 
bits from Home Depot and they only last through 6 or so holes before 
becoming dull. hard to find diamond bits in small sizes, but even 
they need water flow.
