Using glass bevels, jewels, and stained glass, you’ll learn to cut, grind, and solder glass pieces together to turn them into a beautiful hanging Suncatcher. This four-hour class is a fun introduction to working with glass and will give you a chance to see how this medium fits with your creative interests.

Class includes glass and all supplies to complete one 5-8 inch hanging ornament

Due to the inherent risks associated with handling materials and chemicals in stained glass work, we do not recommend this class for individuals who are pregnant or breastfeeding.
