Featured Sponsor: Glass Expressions

Burien, WA

Glass Expressions is a full service stained glass studio located in Burien, near Sea Tac Airport. We have a good stock of tools and supplies for stained glass and glass fusing. We also do custom work and teach a variety of classes.

Kathy Johnson wandered into the shop in the early 80’s and ended up buying it in 1983 when the founder was going to quit. Lael Bennett took a stained glass class from Kathy in 1991 and in 1993 she became Kathy’s business partner. Mindy Constant wandered into the studio with her best friend two years ago. She fell in love with the studio and the customers. In November 2023, she quit her tech job to come to work and decided to purchase the entire business in July 2024. She is the happy new owner that will keep Glass Expressions alive and well. Kathy will stay around for at least three years to help with the transition.

Currently we are running quarterly beginning stained glass classes but can accommodate more advanced students also. We have beginning fusing classes which are scheduled when we have enough students to fill a class.

The store has lot of glass for stained glass. For fusing we stock both 96 and 90 COE glass and supplies. In addition to the sheet glass we have frit, stringers and dicro in both COEs. We have 2 kilns and can fire projects for customers. We are happy to give advice and guidance to customers to make sure they get the right supplies for fusing projects.
