15 Stylish Projects from Start to Finish.
Painting glass is one of the most accessible crafts today, requiring only limited equipment and a little practice and imagination to produce beautiful results. This fascinating book in a new series on practical crafts features a wealth of ideas for painting decorative and functional glass.
The fifteen specially devised projects show a selection of the designers possible with water and solvent-based paints, applied with a brush or sponge, and outliners, which can be used on their own or in combination with paints for the traditional stained glass look. Basic techniques are fully explained, together with helpful advice on designing your own pieces.
Within each project, important details are shown in magnificent close-up, and the accompanying instructions take you through the process, step by step.
