3-Hour Workshop

Date: Saturday, December 17, 2022

Time: 10am-1pm

Description: Curious about stained glass or putting flowers in glass? Get crafty with us on a small scale! Learn different techniques with pressed flowers and transform them into useful objects that preserve natural wonders and your memories. Students will learn how to cut sheet glass and how to foil the edges. Use materials provided and/or bring your own pressed flowers if you desire.

Create your own “cabinet of curiosity” that fits into a glass brooch on your coat, backpack, sweater, or an object for your desk. Makes a great gift of a fun activity to do with friends and family. Everything will be sandwiched between 2 sheets of glass. You will make 2 pins.

Tuition: $55 + $35 materials fee

Materials: All other materials will be provided but students are encouraged to bring poems, handwritten notes, paper collages, cut-outs, decals, magazines, pictures, and thin materials like dried flowers, feathers, or anything sentimental you’d like in glass.
