I'm a big art nouveau nerd and stained glass has always been a standout medium to me. The ideal is to have a homestead that I slowly transform into a poor man's Palau de la Musica, with floral stained glass/mosaics/carvings making a natural cathedral that integrates with my houseplants. Jan Czugalinski's method is the traditional one that allows for big and structurally sound pieces. I finally got enough of a safe workshop space to start learning it and now I just need the glass itself. It seems like it will be a very meditative, dangerously poisonous hobby.

This is really cool and doesn't look too difficult. What makes it poisonous? The lead soldering? I imagine it'd be fine with a respirator

I love stained glass and have always wondered how it's done
