Pressed Flower Suncatchers: Stained Glass Workshop
May 13, 2026 │ 5:00 – 9:00 PM 

Capture a little piece of nature and turn it into a glowing work of art! In this hands-on workshop, you’ll create a beautiful pressed flower suncatcher, preserving delicate blooms between two pieces of glass so they shine in the sunlight. Each piece begins with a pre-cut beveled glass top that adds sparkle and dimension. You’ll then cut and shape the backing glass to fit perfectly.

Along the way, you’ll learn foundational stained glass techniques, including:
• Cutting and grinding glass for a precise fit
• Arranging and sealing pressed flowers between layers
• Applying copper foil
• Soldering your piece together
• Finishing with elegant decorative wire work for a polished, artistic touch

The result? A luminous botanical keepsake that glows in your window and brings the beauty of the outdoors inside.

Perfect for beginners and creatives alike, no prior stained glass experience required. Just bring your love of flowers and a willingness to create something truly special.

Our instructor, Mary Haycraft, has called southern Indiana her home since 2001. She currently lives in Jeffersonville, Indiana where she works from her home-base glass studio with her cats Marsha & Tori and dog Ramey. Haycraft was drawn to stained glass at an early age sitting in a pew at church and watching the beautiful colors play off the floor from the stained-glass windows. She said “it was so peaceful and beautiful I knew I wanted to work with glass.”
