What is fusing and slumping? Well, for those who have already taken a basic beginner stained glass class - you are already one step ahead of the others. You need to know how to cut glass for starters! (But I will teach you or renew your memory if you forgot!) Fusing is the act of placing 2 or more pieces or layers of glass on top of each other or beside one another, and "fuse" them in a glass kiln to become one piece. Slumping is when you take that "fused" (now 1 piece of) glass and lay it in a ceramic mold and once again fire it in a glass kiln so it will take the shape of that mold. There's a few more tricks which I will teach, but basically -That's it!
These classes are for 3 nights, 7-10 p.m. for $130.00 plus taxes and glass per person. So call me at 822-8111 to choose your days and to sign up as we will only be accepting 4 students per workshop. Those who have already contacted me, check with me about making deposits. Thanks. And then you could have a piece that looks something like this:
