Create your own photo keepsake! Bring your favorite photo, design a glass frame and fire image onto glass. On first day, students will make glass blanks to fire photo images onto and will be able to choose from one 8x10 and 1-3x3 magnet, two 5x7 and 1-3x3 magnet or five-3x3 magnets. Digital files required-please bring images on a flash drive or your own laptop. Images can be photos of any subject-landscapes, poems, quotes, people, or original drawings or paintings. Images will be sized depending on design. On day two, we will print images onto the decal paper and transfer images to your glass blank. Any additional glass components can then be added at this stage and pieces will be loaded for final firing. (Meets in W-7, Rm. 716)
