Design and create a beautiful floral glass tea-light holder!
 
What could be cozier than a little candlelight on a dark night? In this session, participants will learn to create two glass tea light holders. Fused glass refers to any piece of glass formed after heating two or more pieces of glass together in a kiln. Through the process, participants will understand the process of creating fused glass – this includes safety, types of glass, co-efficiencies of glass, and the firing of their pieces. Perfect for holiday gifting!
 
Suitable for absolute beginners. Materials included. Pieces will be ready for pick up at TBG 2-3 weeks after the workshop. For safety purposes, wear closed-toed shoes, no loose sleeves/scarves, no jewellery, and hair must be tied back.
 
Note: Samples of the Floral Glass Tea Light Holders are in the TBG Garden Shop and other glass pieces are available for purchase!
 
Saturday, November 18, 10 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.
 
Registration: Public $125, Members $115 (plus applicable taxes and fees)
