Stained Glass is a pleasurable art and craft.
It is a hobby for many, and an art for the few.
Stained glass is often used in the making of windows and lampshades, but is also
useful for boxes, clocks, cabinet doors, picture frames and other 3-dimensional projects.

We hope to offer a learning experience that is fresh, different, and more literary than the dry, magazine form that
lists more equipment than you need, and insists on lenghty warnings about safety. Safety is important, and we have it all
tucked away in one section, so as not to bore you.
