Fused Glass Leaf Suncatcher

With Mandy Sirofchuck

Thursday, September 5, 10 AM - Noon

Learn the art of cutting glass and working with glass frit by making this delightful fused glass leaf suncatcher, just in time for Fall. You have the option of creating either a maple or an oak leaf (please specify when you register). Instructor Mandy Sirofchuck will go over working with a pattern and safely handling and cutting glass. Your project will be "fused" in our glass kiln, meaning there is no use of metals or soldering in this class, and is typically ready to pick up within 2 days. It's perfect for beginners, or those with some experience looking for a fun project to do with other like-minded, creative people!

You will have use of all tools and materials needed for the project. Just bring yourself! You'll also:

learn about tools used in stained glass
learn how to cut glass using practice glass (provided). Most pieces in this class will require cutting curves. We will show you how to do this to minimize glass wastage
cut glass to a pattern
work with glass frit
grind glass
