Description
All the essential information and instruction the beginner needs to know to create stunning stained glass projects. The author has based the book on the highly successful hands-on approach that she has perfected teaching thousands of students in her stained glass classes. The projects-starting with the simplest and ranging to the more difficult-build on mastering skills and tools; understanding glass, copper foil, and lead came techniques; creating a good work environment; and stained glass safety. More than 1,000 step-by-step photos and precise instructions eliminate the guesswork for each project.
