$ 185  

This class is perfect for the beginner! A special antique looking glass technique will be shown to you to create your glass piece. We will be taking the beveled diamond-shaped glass and backing it with your choice of an image. This will be backed with metal flashing and copper taped together. You will then learn how to solder the glass shape. You will add a wire which will hold all of your embellishments (lace, ribbon, crystals). Lastly a patina will be added for that antique age worn look.

Materials Fee $30 cash paid at beginning of class includes:

Beveled glass, copper tape, metal flashing, images to choose from, ribbons, lace, patina, rhinestone piece, glass glitter, crystals, patina.
