Quilted Tree Stained Glass Workshop

Quilted Tree Stained Glass

Picture the quilt that lived on the back of Grandma's couch all winter. Every square was a different scrap with a story: a Sunday dress, a worn-out flannel, somebody's very questionable 1987 curtains. You'd curl up under it with cocoa and watch the same Christmas movie for the fourteenth time, and it never once felt like too many.

This large statement tree is that quilt, pieced in glass. Patchwork triangles of swirled evergreen, snowy white, and cranberry red stack into a classic tree shape, finished with an amber trunk and a little gold star on top, its wire curls twisting up like ribbon. Every piece is already cut, so you'll foil and solder your patches together the way a quilter stitches her squares, one at a time until the whole design comes together. Set it out the day after Thanksgiving, and it'll start feeling like a family heirloom before the leftovers are gone.

Learn to foil, assemble, and solder your stained glass creation in this beginners workshop. All glass is pre cut, so all you have to do is show up, and we'll teach you the rest! Please note: Exact glass colors and piece shapes may vary slightly based on glass availability. Due to limited space, each person attending is required to have their own ticket. PLEASE NOTE: Resin projects take 24 hours to cure and will be available to pickup starting 24 hours after the finish of your workshop. No artistic talent needed! A local Hampton Roads artist will guide you every step of the way, so just show up and we'll take care of the rest.

Reservations are required. If you're using a gift certificate, just email us at [email protected] and we'll get you set up.

To go with your painting or crafting experience, we offer food, wine, beer, cider, soda, and other non-alcoholic drinks for purchase separately (they're not included in your ticket price).

We ask that you leave outside food and drinks at home, and please note you must be 21+ to enjoy alcohol in the studio.

Our doors lock 15 minutes after class begins so we don't interrupt the group once everyone's settled in, so guests arriving later than that won't be able to join that class.

If you're paying individually and want to sit with your group, just let us know how many are in your party and everyone's names, either in the comments at checkout or in an email. Age requirements vary by workshop: stained glass classes are for ages 13+, glass blowing and resin workshops are 18+, our chunky knit blanket class is 12+, and painting classes are recommended for ages 8+ unless otherwise noted. Guests under 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.

Please arrive no more than 15 minutes prior to the start of class.

All sales are final, but if plans change, just let us know at least 2 hours before your class and we'll happily set you up with a class credit instead (valid for 60 days from your original date). No-shows or arrivals more than 15 minutes late won't be eligible for a credit, and if you're more than 15 minutes late, we'll have your canvas or craft supplies packaged up as a take-home kit for you.
