About this Event
All you need in 3 hours to learn how to make stained glass! We will gather in my family's professional working stained glass studio and dive into learning the Foil Method to get you hooked on this unique hobby.
In our hands-on workshop, you will learn to cut glass, select your color combos and start foiling. Then we'll move on to soldering, adding a jump ring for hanging, and even changing the silver finish to copper or black if you like! Yes, magic is in session!✨✨✨
By the end of class you will have completed a 6"x6" piece and know how to:
- Score and cut glass following a pattern
- Minimize your use of the grinder while still fitting your pieces well
- Center and burnish foil so it stays put
- Keep solder flowing on the copper tape
- Predict the behavior molten solder so you get a strong beaded finish
- Expertly tin and add a jump ring to hang your piece
- Best prep to get a shiny finish and best way to apply copper or black patina.
You will be learning from my over 100 year professional lineage of stained glass arts and build solid, quality practices from the beginning. If anything goes wonky as you practice your new skills, I'll have a tip and a way to adjust your wok to share with you.
Glass seems intimidating and fragile, but it can also be very flexible and forgiving when you know how to work with it.
I look forward to creating with you!
