Finished tiles created by artist Rebecca Kerr. Bowl from Contemporary Glass Enameling book. Last project by artist Nancy Weisser of Weisser Glass Studios in Maryland.
Safety Tip: When using powdered enamels always wear a mask.
Cons : The book pictured is not the book included in the kit. In addition, the correct book is listed as one of the items that is frequently bought together with this kit, so I went ahead and purchased it (from another vendor, where it was less expensive.) I now have two such books. To be fair, the correct book is listed in the item description, but the picture is very misleading.
The enamels are in small plastic bags, with no identifying description other than a number. No manufacturer, no instructions.
Other Thoughts : I am looking forward to trying this kit, but with a little effort on Delphi's part it could be much easier to get started with enameling.
When and how did you get started in stained glass? Ive been interested in stained glass for as long as I can remember. As a child, I would sit in churches and watch the (often) biblical depictions come to life when a stray ray of sunlight cast its illumination our way. Sun shadows dancing. I dabbled in many media over the years, trying to find an outlet for some of the visions careening inside, but none of them took. Drawing, painting - even watercolours - no amount of professional training could guide my hand in a satisfactory way. But then there was the glass. I lived abroad for a few years, and wound my way through Europe on my way back to the States when I finished my Peace Corps Service. My last international destination was Paris, where one of my closest friends lives as an organist. Two beautiful autumn

Chances are, right now, in reading this blog post, youre avoiding an overdue task. I too was avoiding a laundry list of work-related tasks in writing this. Procrastination is a part of life, and its certainly always been a part of mine. As a teenager, my parents would accuse me of putting off everything from piano practice to math homework. Id vehemently deny their charges hissing back, I work better under pressure. The truth was, I often felt overwhelmed, under-productive and anxious. Over the years, Ive been able to combat my avoidance issues using 4 tools. The trick is constantly reminding myself of these actions, because they do not come naturally to me. 1. Just Say No. I say yes to everything. Need someone to head up that event? Sure. Want me to design 12 posters for the Car Wash? No problem. Take your kid to daycare? Of course.
