"Breaking" the Glass Jar

Virtual MakerSpace Workshop

Join us on this Women's History Month workshop and decorate a glass jar with a beautiful crackle effect. While we will "break" the glass jar, we will keep a silhouette of a woman intact.

On this special Women's History Month workshop you will learn how to make a glass jar look like it's cracked. While we will "break" the glass jar, we will keep a silhouette of a woman intact.
