Hello again!
Now that April is finally over, we can hopefully move on to warmer and dryer pastures! We have been keeping busy this month by developing some new classes (info below) and Sharon has been working on a commission piece.
We hope everyone had a wonderful Easter and don't forget Mother's Day is literally around the corner,and Father's Day is not far behind. Also, graduation and wedding season is about to kick off! Make special gifts for everyone in your life. It means more!
New Classes
Fused Birdhouse Class
In this class you will learn all the tips and tricks while making your very own glass birdhouse. Sharon will provide all the fun embellishments and firing; you will need to buy the background glass and the glass for the roof (1.5 square feet total). These couldn't be cuter. So stop in today to get a better look and to sign up! Glass cutting skills required!
Class times:
Tuesday, May 31 6-8pm or Thursday, June 16 6-8pm

Faux Wine Bottle with Topper
Create a slumped "wine bottle" made of System 96 fusible glass and a coordinating bottle topper! This class is even better than melting wine bottles because it offers so many more design possibilities. Prism will provide both firings, use of our mold, design elements, and instruction. Students are responsible for the purchase of the base glass. This versatile dish has a handle and a cavity that measures 4x8", perfect for hors'dourves. Glass cutting skills required!
