Create a beautiful glass kaleidoscope using the copperfoil technique. Copperfoiling is similar to leadlighting, but it uses a slightly different method to hold the glass together.

This technique allows you to create 3 dimensional items such as lamps, boxes and suncatchers. During this class you will learn to cut the glass, apply the foil and solder your piece together.

She opened her own business in 1994 and over the years has completed many commissions including the large leadlight window at Centennial Memorial Gardens in Brisbane and many church window restorations. Recently, Michele has held solo exhibitions at Texas and Dalby Regional Art Galleries.
