Stained Glass In An Afternoon

Colorful panels, window ornaments, terrific tabletop accessories, gleaming garden cloches: if you’ve admired the beauty of stained glass, but thought it was something you couldn’t make—think again. Not only are the techniques for both copper foil and mosaic stained glass completely demystified here, but each of the 25 projects takes only an afternoon to complete. You’ll quickly learn how to choose supplies and tools, and to prepare, cut, assemble, solder, frame, and finish—everything needed to craft your own glasswork. Start with a Tulip Panel, the perfect, simple first project. Apply glass nuggets to adorn a frame. Brighten up the home with a Sunflower Clock and graceful Dancing Women Candleholders. Plus: corner accents, beautiful boxes, bird baths, and more.

This book is a great book for anyone considering doing stained glass projects. It is complete with a list of tools and materials and includes several projects in complete detail. It is filled with color pictures of the projects. I would recomment it to any one.

This is a fabulous book! It's great for the novice, with detailed info and it's great for the seasoned crafter as well. I just adore the projects. The price is unbelievable; I've paid more for single project plans. I highly recommend this book!

Great book and lots of idea's. Plus good tips and patterns. I can not wait to get started on the projects

The book is very interesting and the info is good. I wasn't interested in the particular projects, but it did give me ideas of some I can make on my own.I did not find any resources for stained glass and that would have been helpful. Googling stained glass is time consuming and the prices are very high. Each 12x12" piece are $4.99 and up and you need multiple colors to make a project. Is there a resource that is affordable?

This is a fabulous book. There are some many good ideas. I was getting the book from the library and renewed it so many times that I finally decided to purchase it. Well worth the money!

This book is alright. I don't think I would finish a few of these projects in one afternoon, but it is an ok book. Not really anything in here that couldn't be found online for free.

Great Book !! Has detailed instructions on the stained glass process. I will use this book many times in creating projects.

Nice book. Most a ll of the projects are nice and great for beginners. I do recommend this book for you or a gift
