Do you still have your wedding bouquet or flowers pressed in books? Get crafty with us and learn the art of stained glass! This workshop is geared toward beginners who want to learn the art of stained glass and/or for moms and daughters to personalize mementos. Students will learn how to put objects between glass, foil the edges, and solder. Bring your wedding invitation, flowers from your backyard, or anything sentimental*. Learn different techniques with pressed flowers and transform them into a window that preserves natural wonders all year round. *If bringing your own flowers, feathers, maps, etc., make sure the materials are very thin and flat; otherwise the glass cannot lay flat and will be foiled incorrectly. We can determine if the materials will work during class.
