Stained Glass – How To

To begin, let me just say that Stained Glass is a “catch all phrase” that we commonly use to describe a whole variety of materials and colored glasses that you can bring together to craft into many objects that you will find, not only beautiful and decorative and I hope, will include items that are extremely useful, a pleasure to own and display. You can create anything if you have enthusiasm. With time, practice and determination then it is possible to achieve true works of art.

What can you create in your mind?

Are ready to get started and what should you start with?
Perhaps a stained glass mirror?
A trinket box or a pen holder?
Stained glass lamps or a stained glass suncatcher?
A stained glass hanging or what about that “ying and yang” thing and so on and so on.
Anything that you can create in your mind you will be able to make in reality.

Through trial and error you will succeed and you will have learnt how to create lovely objects. I am sure, and I truly hope that your biggest disasters will become your favorite pieces by which you will recall that exciting journey of discovery. I made my first wall hanging more than twenty years ago and it still survives outside on my garden wall and I often look at it with pride and that sense of achievement.
