How can a glass tree be free-standing? By melting the glass in a kiln until it “slumps” in an L-shape, so when cool, it can stand on its own. We will decorate pre-cut glass Christmas tree shapes with frit (ground glass), pre-cut shapes, and glass dots, then those trees will be fired in a kiln to 1450 degrees, then fired again to slump into the L-shape.
Your completed trees will be available for pickup at Womanspace 10-12 days after class, to allow for firing time. It’s always a thrill to see the different and beautiful creations when they come out of the kiln!
