Fused glass garden art features decorative items made by heating compatible glass pieces in a kiln until they melt together into intricate designs, creating durable, vibrant, and unique artistic pieces that are suitable for outdoor display, year round. Design a point of interest for your yard or garden. Students learn to use tools to create a 3" x 12" layered design of glass shapes and stringers. Once fired, the design is attached to a metal stake, finished height approx 28”. As an alternative finishing option, holes can be drilled for hanging. Projects will be available for pick up 2-3 weeks following class.
