WORKSHOP | I466 | Faerie series, II | Seasonal garden stake series: Moonlight muse

Glasstronomy Studios 2600 John St., Unit 108, Markham

The enchantment continues with the second workshop in our Faerie series. Inspired by midsummer magic, the Faerie muse brings a mystical presence to garden spaces, balconies, or glowing window displays. With shimmering iridescent glass, sparkling Mica, and a softly glowing moon, this luminous piece captures the quiet wonder of a summer night. In this two-morning workshop, participants will begin by creating their faerie figure along with delicate firefly companions and graceful branches created in the vitrigraph kiln. A dichroic glass scrap pack is available for those who wish to add extra sparkle to their faerie muse. During the second session, participants will explore the use of Mica, a naturally reflective silicate mineral, learning how it can be incorporated into kiln-formed glass to create a brilliant metallic sheen. The composition is completed with a moon accented with glow pigment, allowing the piece to softly illuminate once the sun goes down. Place your finished faerie among summer flowers or display it indoors where light can catch its shimmering surfaces — and let the midsummer enchantment begin. All project materials and kiln firings are included.
