Welcome to a crash course in stained glass! This is a beginner-level stained glass class, no prior experience necessary. We will learn all of the techniques required to make a colorful, custom night light to take home with you at the end of class. All supplies and tools will be provided.
In this workshop, you'll learn how to use the tools and techniques necessary for cutting glass. Next, we'll choose from a selection of patterns and cut the glass pieces for your project. (There will be lots of colors and textures to choose from!) Once we've cut all our pieces we'll apply the copper foil to the glass pieces in preparation for assembly. Then we'll heat up our soldering irons and assemble our pieces. After soldering, you will apply patina to the solder seams for your desired metal finish. We will wrap up the class by attaching them to the night light assembly.
