All tools and supplies provided to make a stained-glass nightlight, mirror, or sun catcher. Many patterns to choose from.
This class is taught in the copper foil method made popular by Louis Comfort Tiffany. This class will give students a good feel for what the art of stained-glass entails. Students will learn how to cut, shape and foil glass, as well as how to solder and finish the metal. Students will leave the class with a stained-glass piece they made!
*Introductory class pre-requisite to Stained Glass Workshop Sessions, coming beginning of 2027. Four days per session to make a project of your choice.
What to Wear
Closed-toed-shoes suggested, and comfortable clothes you won't mind getting dirty. A big old t-shirt works well, or an apron.
Lead and Glass Safety
Handling lead poses a risk of lead poisoning if certain precautions are not followed. Lead cannot be absorbed through the skin, only through ingestion or an open cut. Follow these basic safety guidelines; always wash hands well with an abrasive soap after working with lead. Never eat, drink, or smoke while working. Always bandage any open cuts on hands or fingers. Wear a mask and solder in a well-ventilated area with a fan, smoke absorber, or fume trap. Keep children away from work area. It takes long term exposure to elevate lead levels in your body. Young children are more susceptible.
When handling glass wear safety glasses and be aware of sharp edges or corners on the glass.
