Illustrated with more than 300 photos, this guide covers everything you
need to know to begin working with glass. Learn the materials and tools
needed, types of glass, and successful techniques, focusing on the
copper foil method. While emphasizing the beauty and creativity that's
easy to enjoy about this craft, the book offers detailed step-by-step
photo instructions for tracing, cutting, grinding, foiling, assembly,
soldering, patina use, and more. The 33 projects, each rated in
difficulty level, cover a wide range of styles and techniques. All of
them beautifully showcase the gorgeous array of art glass available
today, and they serve as useful additions to your everyday life or as
exceptional gifts: a mobile, candy dish, cutlery holder, mirror frames,
lamps, jewelry, and even clocks.
