{ "item_title" : "Stained Glass Projects for Beginners", "item_author" : [" Luca Prince "], "item_description" : "Light Through Glass: A Gentle, Safe Introduction to Stained GlassThink about the first time you saw light stream through a stained glass window. The way color fell across a floor. The feeling that someone's hands had touched every piece, every lead line, every moment of that beauty.Most beginners assume stained glass is out of reach. Too dangerous. Too technical. Too many tools, too much skill, too many ways for things to go wrong.Here's what I've learned: stained glass asks less of you than you think. Yes, it requires care. Yes, safety is non-negotiable. But the skills are learnable, one by one. The tools are manageable. And the moment you see light through glass you cut, ground, foiled, and soldered yourself, that moment changes something.I wrote this book for the person who wants to work with light and color. Who's willing to learn safely, practice patiently, and create things that will hang in windows for years.A crucial note before we begin: Glass work involves sharp tools, heat, and materials that require respect. This book treats safety as foundational, not optional. Chapter 2 is your non-negotiable starting point. Read it. Follow it. Your creative practice should be joyful and safe. What makes this approach differentI didn't learn stained glass in a formal studio or from a master craftsman. I learned the way most of us do, by being drawn to light and color, by making mistakes (safely), by persisting until pieces came together. Some projects taught me patience. Others taught me what not to do next time. All of them taught me that glass, handled with respect, will reward you with beauty.Every technique in this book passed the same test: does it work for someone learning alone? Does it prioritize safety without sacrificing joy? Does it build real skill through real projects?For the person holding this bookMaybe you've admired stained glass for years and finally want to try. Maybe you're a crafter looking for a new challenge. Maybe you simply want to make something beautiful that catches the light.This book is complete on its own. Read Chapter 2 first. Set up safely. Then let the light guide you.The only thing missing is glass in your hands and the willingness to begin, safely, joyfully, one skill at a time.", "item_img_path" : "https://covers2.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/9/79/819/567/9798195675165_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "12.99", "online_price" : "12.99", "our_price" : "12.99", "club_price" : "12.99", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
