The following items are to be supplied by each Student
Goggles or eye protection. I always suggest wearing goggles during cutting/nipping and when using the grinder.. There is always a chance of flying glass! If you wear glasses on a regular basis, you won’t need goggles. If you don’t have any, I will have a few extra pairs to share.
Closed-toe shoes. Glass shards and bare feet don’t mix!
These items will be supplied by Cricket Mosaics and Three Rivers Art Glass (included in the class price):
Glass cutting tools. Nippers, grozing pliers, running pliers, hand files, and glass cutters are all available for your use during the class. A grinder is also available in the studio..
Stained glass. I have a large variety of broken pieces of glass, as well as some full sheets. If there is something you KNOW you will want, I may be able to get specific colors, etc.
Adhesives. Everyone will have their own!
Grout. There will be a light-colored neutral grout and a dark-colored neutral grout to choose from.
Grouting tools. Rags, sponges, all you’ll need!
Instruction and guidance. I will be there with you every step of the way!
