Make a Garden Fish

There are catfish, dogfish, why not garden fish? In this workshop, you will make a fish (or bird), about a foot long, or two smaller, perfect for adorning your garden. Using a template, or making one of your own design, you will be led through the steps to make a fish similar to the ones pictured. The fish have a layer of glass melted over them, giving them a sparkle when the sun hits in the garden. The fish are two sided but only one side can have the glass.  I have had my fish outside all winter for two years, now, with no impact on them.  Driftwood and birch not included This workshop will take place Monday, October 18 and 25 from 4 – 6  pm. Two hours is saved for each workshop, but it is likely the full 2 hours will not be needed. The workshop is limited to 8 attendees. All ages welcome, though, out of an abundance of caution, vaccination is required, as are masks, until further notice.
