Stained Glass Garden Stakes: Celebrate the growing season by adding a handmade glass plant stake to your plants! This beginner-friendly stained-glass class is the perfect opportunity to create a colorful and unique planter stake to brighten up your garden beds or indoor planters.
Choose from a selection of designs, including mushrooms, monstera leaf, snail, flower, and butterfly. Whether you're new to stained glass or have experience, get step-by-step guidance to help you create a beautiful piece.
Honeycomb Suncatchers: If you have been curious about stained-glass, this is a great place to start! After choosing your pre-cut glass pieces and layout, be guided through the two key steps of the stained-glass process: foiling and soldering. By the end of the class, you’ll have a fully finished, window-ready piece.
Mountains (Flower & Fall): Create a beautiful Colorado-inspired mountain scene using real pressed flowers and stained-glass techniques. In this hands-on class, participants assemble a pre-cut glass design featuring a mountain landscape and incorporate real dried flowers to bring the piece to life. This design is adapted in November to highlight the beauty of autumn in the mountains. Students learn two key steps of the stained-glass process: foiling and soldering. Each participant wraps the edges of their glass pieces with copper foil and then solders the design together to complete their project. All glass pieces and pressed flowers are pre-cut and prepared, allowing students to focus on learning the techniques and enjoying the creative process. Leave class with a unique stained-glass artwork that captures the beauty of Colorado’s mountains and wildflowers.
Pumpkin Patch: Celebrate the beautiful fall season with a hands-on stained-glass experience inspired by a classic pumpkin patch. In this beginner-friendly workshop, each participant “picks” a unique pumpkin project from our stained-glass pumpkin patch. Every pumpkin is pre-cut and features a variety of warm autumn glass colors, so no two projects look exactly alike. Students learn the fundamentals of stained-glass assembly, including how to apply copper foil and solder the pieces together. By the end of class, leave with a fully finished fall-themed pumpkin suncatcher ready to brighten a window for the season.
Holiday Themed Patterns: Choose from a selection of beginner-friendly holiday designs like stars, trees, ugly sweaters, mittens, winter mountains, etc. Whether you're new to stained glass or have experience, get step-by-step guidance to help you create a beautiful piece.
