Design, cut, grind, and solder stained glass artwork inspired by the natural world
Light, color, and perspective are the three elements that evoke magic in the world of stained glass. Inspired by its uniqueness and versatility, artist Molly Jackson created her own business, Cedar+Spruce Studio, which she has seen flourish, with many of her pieces selling out. Her artwork combines natural floral elements with the Tiffany method, which result in striking decorative pieces.
In this course, Molly guides you through the entire process of creating a stained-glass composition, from the initial design to the final polish. Learn how to cut stained glass, incorporate botanical elements, and solder the pieces together. Are you ready to make something beautiful with your own two hands?

Reviews
A course by Molly Jackson
Molly Jackson is a self-taught American stained-glass artist and founder of Cedar+Spruce Studios, which opened its virtual doors in 2016. Her creative journey in the world of stained glass art began in high school at the age of 17. She credits an inspiring art teacher who dug up supplies from the art closet, and together, the two learned the basics of glass cutting and soldering.
Molly later went on to study speech language pathology at university, but in searching for a creative outlet, she rediscovered her passion for stained glass. After years of patience, determination, and willingness to learn from her mistakes, she went on to become a full-time stained-glass artist and Cedar+Spruce Studios has gone on to release pieces that regularly sell out.

I cannot cut stained glass in a curved line, even after watching the video several times. Don't waste your time or money. This will not teach you.
