Theresa is an excellent teacher and is a true artist. She also has a lot of local knowledge that she is very willing to share, great vibes!

Fast paced, mostly work on your own but can get help when needed. Multiple steps and must pay total attention to complete project.

Scout’s honor

Megan_F, Jun 2025
Loved learning how to cut, grind, and solder it all together. Scout was the best morale booster. Shoutout to the assistant guy, he was a great help!

Response from Host, Jun 2025

We do make a great team 😊 Thanks for your kind words

So much fun! We expected...

Susan_G, Jun 2025
So much fun! We expected to see a lot of beautiful art in Santa Fe but hadn't planned on making art of our own. J.T. was our instructor--he was very friendly, helpful, informative, and relaxed. I highly recommend this experience if you want to step outside the norm of the typical Santa Fe experience. No special creativity or art background is needed. Just plan to have fun and take home both a beautiful object and a beautiful memory!

Response from Host, Jun 2025

Glad you had so much fun! Come back soon!

Theresa was a great instructor. She explained each step and made it an easy process for someone who has never done stained glass. I am ready to tackle other projects. She was kind and very helpful. I recommend taking this very fun class!

Great class!!!

Bernardo_K, Nov 2024
The folks running the class were super helpful and nice. They had a wonderful sense of humor as well. We loved the class and the stained glass that we made.

Great fun and a nice momento from the trip.

I just acquired a new hobby thanks to the patience and knowledge of the fantastic instructor. The friendly shop dog was a definite bonus.

Cute class to learn the basics

Allison_S, Jul 2024
Cute class, you pick from About a dozen or so designs so it it not freestyle (I understand why but I wish the options of what to make had been a wider variety) basic things like fish, leaf, etc I get it but more limited than I expected. We had fun learned some things but I will take a painting class or glass blowing instead. A one and done type class but decent intro.

Fun mother/daughter activity

Rachel_G, Jul 2024
My teen daughter and I had a great time making a stained glass ornament and learned some new skills for future crafting.

Two non-artsy-crafty persons were coached and encouraged to produce acceptable objects!

Philip_J, May 2024
Site was easy to find; we had excellent directions. Theresa was able to explain technical aspects of the materials and calm our reservations about working with glass and molten metal. Their workshop was clean and inviting, right down to the stray dog! We felt safe, we appreciated not having to produce our own designs (did I mention we're not artsy-crafty?) and we had an ample number of options for materials. Theresa taught us how to use each tool and machine with calmness and modelled each step. We thoroughly enjoyed the class, and would do it again if we came back to the area.

great creative outlet

Kathy_K, Apr 2024
this workshop was a lot of fun and allowed me to have a creative experience on my journey from FL to AZ. the instructor was very good at her craft and teaching us how to make stain glass. the only thing i would say is that the cost was a bit high. other than this i would recommend.

Family Fun Time in Santa Fe

Kelli_B, Mar 2024
Our stained glass class was an awesome experience. We had our family of 6 engaged for almost 3 hours and walked away with stained glass pieces and great memories. We would highly recommend this excursion.

Great souvenir of Santa Fe

rosemary_z, Feb 2024
We were both new to the stained glass process but we had great instructions from Olivia and Terese! This takes a bit of time to acquire a comfort level with the tools and materials but was totally worth the experience! Highly recommend!

Great experience

Joseph_L, Feb 2024
It was a great experience another hobby to add to my many. This is something my husband will do with me

Learned the basics of stained glass.

jesse_S, Jan 2024
Was fun and as advertised. Learned all the basics for stained glass making. We made some small ornaments.

Awesome experience!

Elizabeth_G, Jan 2024
Loved the class, the atmosphere and amazing teacher Theresa! She was a science teacher prior and it shows in her amazing ability to teach the novice a totally new skill without judgment. I would highly recommend for anyone looking to get creative whether they are artistically inclined or not.

Fun and great learning experience

Rasila_B, Dec 2023
Fun experience and definitely would do again. The process was easily explained and well taught. Highly recommend

Great date experience

Kathryn_W, Aug 2023
This was a wonderful experience for my husband and me. We had such a fun time creating our own projects. It was relaxing and refreshing! She is an amazing artist and teacher.

Terrific Experience

Robin_K, May 2022
It was a fun time. It was really interesting to learn all the different steps. Definitely u must have patience to do this as you can not just do it quickly. It takes practice and patience. Great time.

DO IT!

Katie_K, Apr 2022
This was such a fun experience! Totally worth it. Theresa was so hilarious and more than happy to assist any of the group that was not quite sure what we were doing. She was a teacher, and that shines through with her being very patient and very understanding. Plus the pieces we made we will keep for the rest of our lives. It was a lot of fun.
