Easy to Make Stained Glass Boxes

Rating:
Summary: Great for beginners
Review: I used this book to do my first stained glass project without the guidance of my instructor. The cardstock templates are great -- you can cut the pieces out and save them for later works, just remember to make a photocopy! The book has a variety of designs to suit just about every taste, from Pennsylvania Dutch to more abstract modern designs. There are also several different skill levels, so you can progress to more difficult/complex boxes as your skills improve. The explanations of the tools and techniques assume that you have a very basic understanding of stained glass craft, so I'd recommend using this book after you've taken a couple of classes and are ready to branch out on your own.
