STAINED GLASS Beginners: All students make the beginner project shown on the front page. Pick out your own glass selection 24 hours or more before the first class or instructor will pick out glass for you. Beginners learn the steps of the copper foil method of stained glass (cutting, grinding, fitting, foiling, soldering, and framing). This class is three 3 hours sessions totalling 9 hours of instruction.
- Beginners move to the non-beginner classes once they finish their first project.
This class is for someone who has some experience with glass. Students pick your pattern. I will get you set up with a jig and transparency. You pay for your own supplies, i.e. glass, foil, solder, etc. You work at your own pace and I'm here to assist. Get added help and tips to advance your stained glass skills and knowledge. Materials not included in class fee.
