Introduction
Just look around you and you can't help but
notice the revival of interest in the ancient art of stained
glass. Most of the beautiful windows, doors, and lampshades you
see aren't coming out of the studios of the old masters of this
craft. They are being skillfully created in home workshops and
basements!
Stained glass is a craft anyone can do. A
willingness to learn, a little patience, and a minimum investment
in tools and supplies are all it takes. All of the lovely stained
glass items you see for sale in stores can be made in your home
workshop at a small fraction of the retail cost.
The intentions of this book are to guide
the beginner in this craft and to acquaint him/her with the basic
tools and techniques of creating with stained glass.
Many studios, as well as community
colleges, and adult education centers, offer classes where you
can pursue this exciting hobby under the expert supervision of
experienced craftspeople.
