What's included in the price?
All materials and resources will be provided. In this accessible technique, you’ll work with special glass glue to adhere colourful glass pieces onto a clear glass base. Starting with your design, you’ll arrange glass pieces in various colours and shapes. Guided instruction will help you cut or break the glass into the right forms, selecting hues and textures that bring your design to life. Once arranged, you’ll apply glass adhesive to secure each piece to the panel. After the adhesive has set, you’ll add grout between the glass pieces to define the design, creating a polished and weatherproof finish that’s perfect for both indoor and outdoor display. Once you’ve mastered the technique, you can also apply it to other glass items, like bowls and bottles, creating unique, beginner-friendly decorative accents. Soon, you’ll be able to craft a range of weatherproof glass art pieces that brighten your space and beautifully play with light.
