I'm interested in trying this to make some christmas decorations. Could anyone tell me the chemical makeup for it? I have a place very near work that'll probably be able to make it for me rather than buying (already got them to make patina for me very cheap!) Thanks in advance for any...

Would like to try stained glass. Lesson lady says tools are 180$ plus lesson cost. Seem excessive, is this within range for a beginner? What doI need? Are kits available? Any help appreciated. Skip

I have a hollow glass head from Pier 1. I was originally going to mosaic it and turn it into a table lamp. But I have been thinking (belatedly) that there is no air holes for the heat to escape. I thought about drilling holes in the top of the head but that is where the glass is thickest...

I have never quite figured out how to get that rich black color on lead came. As the final step I have tried using a bristle brush, car buffing wheel, etc. I never got that jet black look. Maybe I used the wrong kind of brush or wimped out too soon; I don't know. Any suggestions,...
