Sandblasting is an effective way to create decorative artistic effects on glassware, mirrors, windows, doors, tiles, and jewelry.
The class will teach you different blasting techniques including surface etch, shadow etch, multi-stage etch, and deep carving in such materials as glass, mirror, metal, stone, and wood. You will learn how to work with different materials to make blasting stencils and how to use different blasting equipment and abrasives (with special emphasis on silicon carbide).
Working from some of our patterns and precut stencils, as well as your own personal designs, you will make several glass and mirror tiles and panels to take home.
