hi!

im already doing the glass painting but ive started to think seriously about making real stained glass ornaments like angels, butterflies, flowers etc by soldering bits of cut glass together.
Could anybody advise me on the necessary equipment (prices, brands, sellers etc) and where to buy coloured glass for soldering? i also heard that there are special courses for that too. anybody from wales been there? all suggestions are welcome :)
thanks

Try tempsford stained glass or creative glass guild....I buy fusing supplies from both and I know they do stained glass supplies too. Creative glass guild does classes, as does pearsons glass.
