5 Stars!!
5 Stars!! This book has everything you could possibly want to know about stained glass making, and then some. It has tons of pictures and sketches so it’s easy to visualize what the author is explaining. I was interested in getting into stained glass making but never really knew what was involved or the dangers involved in the process. If you’re serious about trying stained glass making, I’d say this is 100% a must read!! I don’t know if it would be good for people already knowledgeable on stained glass making but for beginners, this is highly recommended!
