Looking to spice up your date night with something unique? Join us for an evening of creativity as you and your partner or friend make a stained glass project together that you get to take home. In this class, we’ll guide you through creating a beautiful honeycomb sun-catcher (see photos for examples). The glass pieces are pre-cut, so you’ll focus on two key steps of the stained glass process: foiling and soldering. By the end of the class, you’ll have a fully finished, window-ready piece.
This class is designed for teamwork. You and your partner will share a station and work together on your project. You can choose between two options: create one larger honeycomb sun-catcher as a team (about 6 inches) or each make your own smaller sun-catcher (about 3-4 inches).
We provide all the materials—just bring your date and enjoy the experience! The cost of the class covers two people.
Note: If you're interested in a more in-depth, beginner-friendly class that covers the entire stained glass process from start to finish, please check our schedule for other offerings. This class is designed to be short and sweet, similar to the style of a cooking class!
