**After discussing scheduling with Big M Stained Glass, I have decided to have a one-day class with a grouting demonstration at the end of the class. (You will be sent home with everything you need to grout your piece of art.) You will also have access to a You-Tube video that shows the grouting process from beginning to end for reference. If you aren’t comfortable grouting your own piece, I will be able to grout your mirror for you for a small fee.
