Hobby Lobby has Fireworks Glass Beadmaking Kit on sale for $69.99.
I've never done lampwork and am dying to try it, but am on a very limited budget at this time. Is this something that would be good to use to find out if I have a knack for lampwork or should I save up my money for something better? I'm hesitant to put a lot of money into something I may well suck at.
There is a class in a city about 2 hours away. It's $275 for 2 Saturday classes. Would it be best to save up my pennies and take this course and then save even more pennies to purchase whatever supplies they recommend?
I love looking at all the gorgeous lampwork that many of you do. I may have to be satisfied with eye candy, as I can't afford to purchase more than the most inexpensive beads and the idea of being able to do it myself seems so out of reach. (I'm not crafty or artistic as a rule. I have recently found out that I'm not too bad at making chain maille jewelry, though.)
Thanks for any input.
