You don't want to be like Max.
But you do want to buy some of these beautiful rods to make his work worth it!

Hey there Intermediate Glass Artists! We do a lot of classes for beginners, but please don't think we've forgotten you!
This Tuesday evening at Guild Night, Reilly Burgess will be demonstrating how to cut bottles and create fiber "carvings" for creating your own textured glass in the kiln. Great for stained glassers or fusers! One night Guild Fee ($20) includes the whole day in our classroom to work independently, then the support (and lessons!) from a Guild Guide from 5:30-8pm. Email [email protected] with any questions!

OMG! Best swag ever! At 16" wide, 12" high, and 2.5" deep, it's the perfect everyday carry-all. Sturdy enough for glass, stylish enough for everything else.

Fun tote bag for everyday use

Throwback to the days of printed catalogs and $7/square foot fusible glass!!
Janet and Richard started Stained Glass Express in 1988, and based on this photo, we think this catalog is from around that time! See Anne, Richard, Wanda, Michelle, Janet, and Jim posing at the original Waterville location in Railroad Square (hence, Glass "Express", get it?)

Introducing our newest superstar, Easton!

Easton just completed his Introduction to Stained Glass class with Red, and we think it’s safe to say he’s officially hooked. The piece he’s holding is only his SECOND stained glass project ever — and it’s completely his own design!

Swipe through the photos to see his very first project too … it’s just as stunning.

Easton shared that his dad used to do stained glass, but he never really paid much attention to it growing up. Now he says he had no idea how much fun it could be — and we’re so glad he discovered it!

Please show some love to Easton and welcome him to our community!

Check out our classes - you might just find your new passion! (and don't forget to use code BOGOHALF when you sign up for Beginner Stained Glass to buy one, get one half price! Ends soon!) https://www.stainedglassexpress.com/collections/all-classes
