Want to make your own decoration like you’re living your best Hallmark Christmas movie?! In this special class you will create your own festive colored glass wreath, or you can make a larger one with a partner or friend. Easy to hang in the window or in the tree! Create memories that would work great as you go home for Christmas while creating art, for yourself or as a gift (for that special someone -perhaps a secret prince of some sort- or someone who may or may not be Santa?). No glass experience is needed.
Your glass wreath ornament can become the treasure that will save the family inn/bookshop/bakery/choir/farm… if you only would listen to your heart!
