In this one-day class you will be creating a relic box filled with items of your choice. Once you have finished creating your pieces inside the box, we will then place the glass on top of the box and solder it shut.
These boxes are fun to create and are fun to display.
Materials Fee $40 cash paid at beginning of class includes:
Cardboard box for the relics, glass for box, your choice of different relic pieces to put in your box (sacred hearts, stuffed sacred heart in ivory or burgundy, madonna statue, plus other items available for your choosing), copper tape, brass box feet for bottom of box, glass glitter, papers, antique wax, patina, crystals, buttons, flowers, leaves, lace, trim, metal for top of box.
