In this 2 hour, hands-on class, you’ll learn the basics of flameworking. Using a propane torch you'll melt colored glass rods on to a mandrel to make beads. In addition, you'll get to roll your beads in ground glass (frit) to make them even more special. You'll get to customize your beads by choosing from a wide range of colors for your beads.
You will be working with this amazing material that is changing before your eyes, either moving more or moving less depending on the heat.
Beads need to anneal and be cleaned. They will be available for pick-up a few days after the class date; instructor will advise on date.
