Learn how to make stained glass
by Joe on Nov.26, 2012, under Crafts, Events, Projects
After the great response we had for the last stained glass class, Rachel has decided to do two more classes in December. We’ll be creating a ~5×7 stained glass project. Participants are encouraged to bring their own Glass cutter ($5 – ebay, amazon, Hobby Lobby, etc) everything else will be provided.
We will be doing one 4 Person class as a make up to those who missed the last class on December 8th. The December 16th class will be on projects that can be done this way and it really can open the path to creativity in working with glass Sign ups are first come, first serve. If we exceed the sign ups we’ll plan another day to do this event again.
Please sign up for the classes via the following links (You do not need to have a WordPress account to sign up)
The cost for the class is $20 per person. There is a button to pay for the class on the events page in the links below.
