If you don't want to buy your own equipment yet want to create more fused glass, this is the class for you..
Let's get together and continue to fuse! In this 2 1/2 hour class, you will have free time to work on new glass pieces, ask questions, and get inspired!  
If you have items from a previous class that you would like glued into pendants or earrings, bring them and we’ll finish them up.
I will demonstrate new techniques and tips to help you progress in your design and answer any questions you have.
This is a great opportunity to get together with fun, creative people and work on something you enjoy! Class limited to 10 people.
