  • Today I'm trying stained glass painting by using the house of crafts stained glass craft kit! Now I have to say I absolutely loved the activity of stained glass painting, I thought it was super fun and relaxing; however when it comes to the house of crafts stained glass craft kit I'd definitely give it a miss! Firstly it arrived with the glass smashed, secondly the paintbrush shed all of its bristles, and finally the lead that was provided in the craft kit was a nightmare to use! I think if you're wanting to take up stained glass painting as a craft, I'd highly recommend either buying the materials separately, or purchasing a was better stained glass painting kit! But let me know what your thoughts were on this stained glass painting kit, and what you thought of my finished stained glass suncatcher in the comments below!

    I also hate returning things. I'd rather donate something than return it.
    Been to physiotherapy a lot for back/neck/shoulder/ankle injuries. There will probably be stretching too but there's a lot of (sometimes) rough massage. Glad you're looking forward to going back.
    Loved the suncatcher. Even though the process with the lead strips seemed like an absolute nightmare, the end product came out really well! I didn't notice the color bleed until you pointed it out. Nice job! Thanks, as always, for the vid!

    Haha, we had a stained glass hallway light shade in our first house when I was a kid and I loved it!
    When we moved, to a rather posh house, we had the stained glass in the front door. Dad was in the loft one day and we heard him grumbling away. Turned out there was....wait for it....a stained glass double headboard up there and we figured it must have been made up there as he had to break it apart to get it out, much to mine and Dad's disappointment!!!
    You can buy stained glass things on Etsy, and they're bloody expensive!! xx

    I'm a glass painter and stained glass artist. I've used those strips as well and I hate them. Next time get some washable fabric paint. It's much cheaper and easier to outline with than pebeo outliner. Let it dry for 24 hours before you paint. It's not bakeable but you can use solvent or water based glass paint with it. Solvent based i dries in 24 hours, I give mine 48. Water based dries in 72 hours. In the US I get Tulip 3 Dimensional fabric paint. Get yourself a lightbox if you don't have one, it makes tracing so much easier. You can get frames and glass from a dollar store to start with. Get a silicone brush (I use clay tools) for the paint. You can try this again for pretty cheap. Happy crafting.

    I love your suncatcher! It's terrible they don't wrap their kit better for sending though...
    I've tried making a little stained glass window with cracked coloured glass and soldering iron strips before at a traditional skills workshop. I remember it being so fiddly 😂

    Wow, your stained glass reminded me of 'Yogi Bars'. A kind of glacé toffee that we used to buy in our tuck-shop at school (in Northumberland). They were green, red, and I think yellow bars.
    It looks great, you need to do more, Ant! xx

      Or PVA mixed with a black or grey (whatever colour you want) acrylic paint and squeeze it on to create the lines.
      I guess you could do the colours that way, too, once the outlines have dried! xx

    So I am lying in my bed with pneumonia at the moment and the pinnacle moment of the shitty brush shedding made me laugh so much that it set me off on a big coughing fit. Normal service has resumed thankfully! I used to see those kits in The Range and always think I should get one of those and just try something new. Never did, but they do have a lot of appeal cause you think you're going to get everything you need & it'll be dead simple. I think you have put that idea to rest 🤣🤣 the end result looked cute though!

    Your suncatcher came out really nice, well done Ant. Glass painting is a lovely craft. I remember doors and windows on posh houses when I was a kiddie, that had glass like that in the design, they looked so darn cool. Of course my parents council house didn't have any of that coloured glass on the doors or windows. I've always liked that aesthetic tho, as it turned a plain window or door into a piece of art. God bless you and all those you love Ant. Have a great weekend hun!

    The painted glass looked great with the light shining though it on to the wall. I had to return a pair of boots once there is a bit of difference between size 4 and size 14. For some reason I have never been asked to walked on anyone back as a form of physio.

    An interesting fact about lead. Centuries ago when wealthy people and royalty wore this very white makeup which they didn't know contained lead. Many people died of lead poisoning because of that.
    Tbh, I don't buy kits. In this case, I would buy the parts separately.
