    Introduction to Glass Flameworking

    Discover the mesmerizing art of glass flameworking! In this introductory class, you'll learn the fundamentals of working with a propane/oxygen torch to melt and shape glass rods. We'll cover the basics of the flameworking setup, essential safety procedures, and a brief history of glass. You'll gain hands-on experience pulling stringers, creating twisties, and forming basic beads. We'll also explore various decorating techniques and learn how to properly finish your glass creations, including annealing. By the end of this class, you'll have a foundational understanding of torch work and the skills to create your own unique glass beads, marbles, pendants, and more.

    What You'll Learn: You will learn about torch and gas safety, essential flameworking tools, and the annealing process. You will also gain skills in pulling stringers, making twisties, forming basic beads, applying decorative techniques, and finishing beads.
