Please join us for a fun-filled weekend event, creating beautiful enameled holiday ornaments. Participants will learn different techniques to apply vitreous enamels, which are ground glass powders, to copper sheet or mesh, and then fuse the enamels in a kiln. Patterns for various styles of ornaments will be provided, along with instructions in how to decorate them with colorful and unique patterns and motifs. Each participant will take home a finished ornament, ready to hang or display in their home -- or to give as a gift!

No previous enameling experience is necessary -- beginners and experienced enamelists are welcome. All tools and materials provided.
