Stained Glass
The class was fun and easy to learn. I wish that there were a little more supplies available (soldering irons and grinders) so that you don't have to wait your turn, but I was still able to complete 3 different projects over my classes. I enjoyed the projects and see how you can really expand the scope of projects if you sign up for additional class sessions. It was an interesting skill to learn and a very enjoyable class. -

Great class, excellent teacher. My one suggestion is that certain safety measures (wearing a mask while soldering, for example, or wearing gloves when applying patina) should at least be discussed, even if the teacher chooses not to follow them herself. -

Great class, with a relaxed, friendly vibe. -
Beaded Jewelry
This was an out standing beading course. The teacher, Mrs carol Horn, is an expert teacher. She presented projects for the class to do that were not only beautiful but of her own design. She explained the process clearly and was always available for help. -
