If you're like me and can't keep a plant alive to save your life and you either work with stained glass or are considering it, this is the project for you! In this third No green thumb, no problem video we cover the Orchid Pattern! This step by step tutorial will go over how to make a 3D Stained Glass Orchid as well as all the materials needed to do so. Below is a list of materials used for this project. Remember, It's not random art, it's creative chaos :)
