Stained
Glass
Working
in stained glass is an interesting, rewarding and affordable hobby. With
patience and practice almost anyone can master the skills required to turn
out a masterpiece in glass. At
Full
MoonStudio
we
keep our classes small, therefore we can offer a high level of tuition
to enable you to achieve a professional finish to your work.
We
also believe that learning should be fun, so our students are encouraged
to sing, dance, tell jokes, etc. while they work.
After
a brief introduction and safety talk you will be instructed in the use
of tools and equipment, glass cutting, grinding, copper foiling, soldering
and finishing.
Leading
classes will be available soon - ask for details.
Mosaic
We
are also able to offer a beginner's class in mosaic work. Students
are taught to cut their own tessarae (mosaic tiles) from our wide selection
of art glass and then build a 30 x 30cm panel or mirror frame.
Duration
& fees
Both
stained glass and mosaic beginner’s courses last eight hours and can be
taken in the evening in two hour sessions, or at weekends in either two
mornings or two afternoons.
Other
times by arrangement.
Continuation
Classes
Our
popular continuation classes are available to anyone with a basic knowledge
of stained glass techniques. These classes allow you the use of the
studio and equipment (materials not included) to work on your own projects.
Technical assistance and encouragement is always available.
Projects
completed at these sessions include sun catchers, candle holders, vases,
lamps, panels and windows.
Materials
are available from stock. |
