BEGINNERS / INTERMEDIATE / ADVANCED


Want small flowers, leaves, and other fun shapes? Join us to learn freeze and fuse to make flowers, animals, leaves, etc. This will be a two - segment workshop ON THE SAME DAY. We will use opal powdered frit mixed with water in silicone molds which will then be frozen. We will take a break until 2:00pm then return to remove the items from the molds and place them on a 6x6 tile prepared with Papyros (kiln) paper. The tiles will go immediately into the kiln to be fired.

Project size is 6 x 6.  There will be one (1) firing.

You will need to bring:

A  P100 mask (no exceptions) The disposable version can be ordered on Amazon or purchased at the GAC store. Check store hours!

Your favorite colors of COE 96 opal powdered frit . Note: Check order & delivery dates.  Also available on Amazon, Delphi Glass, and Etsy.

Note: Transparent powders (non-see through) do not always work as well as opals.

  • A small paint brush
  • A small needle nose squirt bottle for water (available at the GAC store)
  • An old electric toothbrush if you have one available.
  • A small spoon such as a baby spoon
  • A 6 x 6 tile (if you have one) or check ahead in the studio and sign one out.
