10:00 am - 4:00 pm "Glass on Glass": This technique uses translucent stained or colored glass arranged onto a clear glass sheet, adhered with clear adhesive, so that light can shine through. This achieves a similar effect as a true leaded stained glass work, but doesn't need any leading, copper foil or soldering. Any clear glass not covered by colored glass can be filled in with grout, or left clear. This simpler method is more flexible and allows more spontaneity and creativity. Saturday, March 29, 2025
