Glass etching is the process of making glass look “frosted”. Sisters, Betsey Dempsey and Deb Rooney will teach you how to create an etched design on glassware.
Students will choose stencils and two glass pieces to create their own designs that they will bring home at the end of class. The final project makes a great gift!
For students aged 13 and older.
This class involves the use of an xacto knife and etching cream, an acid based product. Safety glasses and gloves will be provided. Note: Those very sensitive to any minor chemical odor might avoid this class.
This class will meet inside CVU.
Betsey Dempsey and Deb Rooney are sisters who enjoy taking old or discarded goods and giving them a new life in creative ways!
