  Instructor will bring some embellishments, scrap glass and black paint & toothpicks to create the pupils on the eyes (cost $2/student if supplies needed).  

  
  

  Instructor will provide patterns for Papa, Mama and baby penguins.

  
  

  Size and firing fees are the responsibility of each student at end of class.  Size will depend on how many baby penguins are in the family.

  Plan on two firings.

  On day 2 you will apply your frit to the tree and construct "leaf litter" for the ground surround your tree.  You will also choose your mesquite base and take it home to apply lacquer (spray is the easiest) for the following week.

  On day 3, bring your prepared mesquite base.  You will use a Dremel tool to make a small groove in the mesquite for your tree stand and then assemble and epoxy your tree and leaf litter in place.

  Materials needed:

  • 8" x 10" sheet of Papyros paper x 2
  • P 100 mask
  • Chapstick
  • Container to nip into
  • Duro Super Glue
  • Black Sharpie

  • Tiles are available for check-out in the studio if you don't have your own.
  • Closed container for frit 
  • Mortar & Pestle (if available)
  • Cutting Tool
  • Mosaic nippers
  • 6" x 6" tile (if you have one)
  • 6" x 6" piece of Papyros paper
  • Exacto knife 
  • Carry box on Day 3 for finished tree
  • Lacquer (at home)

  Remember closed toe shoes and safety glasses are required.

  INTERMEDIATE

  
  

  

  In this class you will have a choice between 2 different fish.

  The fish with the stripes goes on a clear piece of glass 9" x 5.5;" the head is 2 1/4" x 4 1/4;" the stripes can be made up from several scrap pieces to make 1 stripe and the tail is 1 1/4" x 4."   The finished size is about 9 1/2" x 6 1/2".

  The fish with teeth is a single glass, not on clear.  The longest piece is about 9 1/2." This will be more difficult to make and the finished size is about 10 1/4" x 7 1/4."

  Choose the colors for the fish that you want to make.

  Templates for both fish will be available at class.

  Both fish need to be on a 9" x 12" tile.  The instructor will provide the paper for the tiles at no cost and the firing fee will be $3.50 payable at the front desk when you pass in your project.

  Remember to wear closed toe shoes and bring safety glasses.

  INTERMEDIATE AND ADVANCED LEVEL

  This beautiful piece looks easy, but it is actually an Intermediate/Advanced level.  It will require skilled cutting and the use of the grinder straight edge (previous use of this is not required).

  

  Glass you will need to bring (wait to cut glass while in class):

  • White:  12" x 4"
  • Dark Blue:  4" x 5"
  • Stars are optional design.  You can purchase them from Etsy or any quality glass source.  (I used Etsy ones and they fused into almost circles, but still look good).  Murini ones may be better.  You could also use glassline white paint or small white dots.

  Make sure that you have a ruler that is marked in 32nds as some of the dimensions are in this very tiny measurement.

  Supplies to have readily available for all workshops to be fully prepared:

  ·       Cutting Tools

  You will be using slump mold #RE17 and the finished piece will first be fired bull & them slumped.  Firing costs are responsible when project is turned in to be fired.

  Each firing fee will be $3.50 for a total of $7.00.  

  There is no instructor fee.

  Remember to PLEASE wear your name badge, closed toe shoes and safety glass are required.

  This is the Volunteer Signup to sort SWAG orders for this month - First Friday of the month.   This is only being sent to the group of people who have expressed interest in assisting.  We are limiting signups to avoid having too many people resulting in a backup in the process.  

  The start time is fluid, we get a text from SWAG when they are about 20-30 minutes away.  Expect that time to be somewhere between 11 and 2.  We aim to be completed with the sorting of the order by 3pm when the studio closes.

  Thanks in advance for your help.
