Sunshine streaming through a riot of colour. A plain window becomes a place to pause and take a deep breath, watching the sparkle of cut-glass patterns.
In this workshop, we will create a framed glass mosaic that may be placed in a window. It will be a “glass on glass” technique. Using clear adhesive, the glass tiles will be attached to a glass sheet within a picture frame. You will have instructions on the “glass on glass” mosaic-making process and on how to safely and accurately cut glass tile. No mosaic-making experience is necessary. Tools and tiles supplied. Each participant needs to bring no larger than an 8”x 10” frame with its glass insert.
