2 Thursdays, February 5, 12, 10am-1pm

Learn the basics of gold leafing and framing to enhance the tiny treasures you make out of stained glass scrap, trimmed with dichroic glass, frit, stringers, and anything else you can think of. Pop it in the kiln and when it comes out, add even more, such as beads, wire, stones, wood, etc. When you are satisfied with the results, mount in the frame, provided, with the gold-leafed background.  Stunner!!
