Description

This is a beginner-level Stained Glass Class, no skills necessary! We will learn all of the techniques required to make a Stained Glass Suncatcher that you will get to take home with you. All of the supplies and tools will be provided. Note: Wear closed-toed shoes and long-sleeved clothing you won’t mind working in. We will be working with hot tools and sharp materials. You will use solder containing lead--which we will teach you how to use safely. As a precaution, children and expecting mothers are not advised to take this class. Class Details: 6:00pm-9:00pm Thursday, May 18th. We will begin by learning how to use glass cutting tools and techniques for cutting glass. Next, you will choose one of three patterns for your Suncatcher and cut the glass pieces for your project. (There will be lots of colors and textures to choose from!) Once we have learned how to apply the copper foil to the glass pieces, we will heat up our soldering irons and assemble our Suncatchers! After soldering, you will apply patina to the solder seams. We will wrap up the class by polishing our Suncatchers. At this point your new Stained Glass will be ready to go home with you! GEAR: All materials, tools, and safety equipment are provided! CLASSMATES: Come solo and make friends! Have a buddy sign up with you! Come for date night! This class maxes at 10 students and is a good time for all! BREAK OUT THE OVERALLS: While this isn't our grungiest class, be sure to wear clothing you don't mind working in. You'll want to be comfortable. This class is intended for students age 18+.
