Christmas Tree Pop-Ups

  • UC San Diego Craft Center 9655 Scholars Drive North La Jolla, CA, 92093 United States (map)

It’s time to get into the holiday spirit and create a Christmas Tree Scene to celebrate the season! Join Instructor Suzanne Balestri for this special class where you will create a fused glass Christmas tree scene (and stand). You’ll learn how to cut tree branch shapes, create glass tinsel, and use epoxy to make your scene pieces stand upright and be displayed on your mantel or table!

No previous glass experience needed and beginners are welcome! You’ll learn glass-cutting techniques as well as design tips to create seasonal art that is truly unique.  Suzanne has also prepared instructional videos that will be emailed to you before the workshop so you will have a head start learning about glass cutting & grinding techniques, as well as a class project preview.

Class Fee: $100

Material Fee: $10 (cash only, due at beginning of class)

Note:  All glass art will be kiln-fired after class and ready for pick up at the in approximately one week.
