Stained Glass Jewelry: Soft Soldering (Tiffany Method)

April 28, 2021 @ 9:00 am - April 30, 2021 @ 12:00 pm

$84

Austin – Wednesday and Friday, Apr 28-30, 9 am-12 pm (Online)

In this 2-day workshop, the instructor will guide students through the basics of creating wearable art using the Tiffany method of Stained Glass (copper foil and soft soldering) through interactive demonstrations on: basic glass cutting, grinding, basic foiling, creating decorative foils, basic soldering, decorative soldering techniques, creating jewelry with broken ceramics and found objects, making jump rings and eye pins, as well as discussions and information regarding tools and materials. Handouts detailing *tools and supplies, a course outline, and other information will be emailed to participants prior to class.*It is not necessary to collect these items before class as it may be challenging to acquire all items in time. If you have tools, supplies, and a project in mind, you may work along with the instructor. However, you may find it more beneficial to treat the class like an interactive tutorial where you observe the process and ask questions of the instructor as needed and take notes. The instructor will also discuss different ways to acquire tools/supplies and how to work more economically.
