Product Information
Our coaster class is a technical class, where you will develop skills in using glass paint and fine frit to bring your design to life. Careful placing of frit is required to keep your coaster shape, too much frit and your coaster will become a unique shape in our kiln when fired. It is important to listen to Jane's advice in this class. Solid glass is not used in this class.
In this class you get to make one 4 inch square tile (design area),working on 2 pieces of glass. You will draw your outline design on one tile using glass paint pens . Your 2nd tile is where you will add your frit. Fired together they create a smooth surface for an object to sit on.
A variety of template designs are provided, but you are more than welcome to bring your own design to fit the above dimensions.
