Feb 12, 19 & 26, 6:30 to 9pm
or
April 8, 15 & 22, 6:30 to 9:00 pm
Fee: $125
Immerse yourself in this intense introduction to the Tiffany method of stained glass and go home with a simple window panel you made with your own two hands! Select from a variety of patterns and glass to create something you'll treasure forever.
This class gets a little physical and messy and may prove difficult for some so bring a patient spirit, your old work clothes and safety glasses. Learn the basics of glass cutting, copper foiling, soldering and framing using materials, tools and supplies provided. Personalized tool kits are also available along with additional glass instruction and a field trip to the local stained glass retailer for a broad overview of the varieties of glass and supplies available.
Register with The Goddess or call 612-521-0399. Payment due at first class.
NEW DIMENSIONS: A 3-D Stained Glass Workshop
with Connie Beckers
Sat, May 10, 2008, 9am – 4pm
Fee: $115 – includes all materials and supplies to complete the pictured projects
No glass cutting required! No previous experience required! Create three projects as pictured — a 2” tealite holder, a 4” triangular hinged lid trinket box and a 4”x7” lantern — using pre-cut glass, supplies and tools provided by the instructor. Students will simply apply copperfoil and solder to focus on learning the basic methods for creating 3-dimensional stained glass pieces. Students will leave with their finished projects and complete instructions and tips to take 3-D a little further on their own.
