For glass we have to create 2 types of moulds in which we can create glass peices. The first is a plaster mould, which is formed around a clay model, then once cleaned, glass shards are place into the mould and melted to for your peice. The second mould we have been working on is wooden! This is a verryyy new but exciting material to work with. Although I craft with my hands constantly, this felt very 'hands on'. Using carving tools, drills and other such heavy machinary has always been a foreign to me, and I feel very proud at what I achieved!
