HOLIDAY Studio Workshop
December 5-7, 2008

Holiday - SOLDERING FOR VIRGINS
Friday, December 5, 2008
$150

Holiday Ornaments! For those of you who are Virgins...and maybe some not-so-Virgins, we will
create an assortment of Holiday Ornaments of
different shapes and sizes using both beveled glass
and custom-cut glass. Learn the basics of soldering,
what to use and why, how to achieve a smooth and
shiny finish, how to solder found objects, dimensional items, unusualy shapes, how to cut glass, and more. Students will make at least four Ornaments - more if you work faster. This is a great workshop to experiment with soldering and create some special holiday gifts...and plenty of time before Christmas so you can make more on your own! Includes Faux Bracelet.

Holiday - SHRINE IN A BOTTLE
Saturday, December 6, 2008
$150

An extra-special Workshop to add to your holiday decor. We will first create 3-dimensional shrines within found vintage bottles. How, you ask? We will learn how! Our shrines will reflect the
magical holiday spirit with antique photos,
snippets of greeting cards, tinsel, glitter, ribbon
and other ephemera. After they are encased, we will then create bottle-toppers using chandelier crystals, found objects, doll parts, glass shards and more. Students will be able to create at least one Shrine in a Bottle. This Workshop includes one vintage bottle...but students can bring additional bottles to make as time permits.
Bottle included.

Holiday - GLASS ANGEL TREE TOPPER
Sunday, December 7, 2008
$150

There she is...a vision in glass...your angel
tree-topper. Created with a glass skirt that
sparkles against the twinkling Christmas Tree
lights, her circa 1800's doll head and body
bringing the vintage aesthetic to your
holiday decor. But her wings...yes...her wings...
made with shards of glass, bits of crystals
and a few surprise elements (it's all about the
wings...isn't it?). Surely she has a halo above her
head...she is an angel after all! You'll love making
her so much you might just need a second Christmas Tree so you can have a second Angel
Tree Topper. Glass and doll included.

Valentines - HOME IS WHERE THE HEART IS
Saturday, January 24, 2009
$150

Having a place to go is a home.
Having someone to love is a family.
Having both is a blessing.
In this special Workshop we will build
our own house of glass - transparent as to see
what homes should hold - a "heart" of love. So
tiny that it can be worn as a pendant for you
to always have your home with you no matter
where you are. But in the spirit of decorating...
a side-project of a love seat. Learn how to
make a chair which won't fit in your house,
but can be worn along side it or separately.
Glass and heart included.
Valentines - THE LOVE NECKLACE
Sunday, January 25, 2009
$150

The creme-de-la-creme of Necklaces...just in time for your Valentines Day date! Using heart-shaped
glass and other elements representing love, we
will create a one-of-a-kind necklace that reflects
the love we have for our family, our spouse, our kitty-cat! Each student will create special artwork to put within the glass elements and solder as
well as some unique attachments of found
objects and ephemera. Our necklace will
certainly be a show-stopper and will always
represent to us its theme of love and how it
was create...made with love.
Glass and some extras included.

Make Your Own Magic Wand
Friday, March 13, 2009
$150

You can create your own magic with a wand that
promises to fill your life with magic. We will
create our own original artwork in a fun way
and encase it between shaped beveled glass.
Each piece will be soldered together to form
our wand and then embellished just as we've
envisioned it in fairy tales. Twirling, spinning,
we will see if we can make all our dreams
come true. Glass and wire included.

Ooh-La-La Lampshade
Saturday & Sunday, March 14-15, 2009

This is a very special workshop. For two days, we will let our imagination
go wild and create a one-of-a-kind work of art. Literally. Using different
shapes of glass, textures, vintage and new, beveled and crystalized,
broken and colored, along with found objects, rhinestones, jewels
and more, we will make a lamp-shade that will certainly be a show-stopper!
Whether a shade for granny's antique crystal lamp, or one for a simple lamp
found on sale at Target, this work of art will surely light up any
room. Form and glass included.
