Although we still sell stained glass and supplies and I do commissions, I no longer teach stained glass classes.
In the last 10 years or so, I have found that people just don't stick with it. It does take a lot of time and concentration. Fused glass, painting with enamels, and mosaics are easier to learn, faster to complete, are less toxic and cleaner to work with. If you are curious about what all goes on here please feel free to stop by and treat yourself to a new experience. |
