DIY Stained Glass Painting at Home

This class is a great opportunity to occupy yourself at home, learn something new and create a stunning piece of artwork at the same time! You will learn the technique of stained glass painting and make your very own exciting and unique hand-painted suncatcher that you'll be proud to hang in your house.

During the live online class, your teacher will demonstrate the technique of stained glass painting, the technique of applying an outliner on the glass, as well as mixing different mediums. Then they will guide you as you make your own beautiful artwork.

To begin you will learn about glass and ceramics painting in general, as well as materials and techniques which can be used to achieve various results. Then using one of the provided stencils, you will transfer this pattern on square glass using outliner and special glass paints. If you want to use your own stencil please confirm the design with the teacher to ensure it is suitable.

This online class runs for three hours, providing enough time to show you different techniques and get to a point where you will feel comfortable on your own playing around with colours. You will also have ample to ask questions in real-time throughout the class.

The best thing about doing this class online is that:

• You can finish your artwork in your own pace, with no hurry and stress if it takes you a bit longer (and trust me it can take longer when it comes to choosing colours)
• You still will have some materials left which you can use to create another masterpiece!

After the class, you will get one week of chat support on Telegram or Whatsapp. That means that you can send your teacher questions and photos of your artwork if you need any help or advice.

Please note that the listed time for this workshop is flexible. You can request any other day that suits you and I will do my best to make it available. This class is not suitable for pregnant women.

No experience is necessary! Just takes a bit of patience :)

• You can bring your own stencil 20x20 cm if you like (you need to confirm it with the teacher)
• You will need to set up your camera so I can see what you are doing. You can do it during the class when we start working, but it's good to organise a tripod or stand before the class.
• Don't put your best clothes on. If you get this paint on your clothes it won't come off.

This Box and Live class is a great indoor activity idea for individuals and couples as well as for virtual team building activities at home.

This would also be a nice gift for her, gift for mum, anniversary gift or Xmas gift.
