Beginner Suncatcher Kit + Class
Beginner Suncatcher Kit + Class
⚠️ This is a PREORDER. Kits will not ship until September 8.
Create your own dichroic glass suncatcher from home with this beginner-friendly kit and step-by-step video class from Cosmic Outlaw Studio.
Designed for complete beginners, this founding launch includes a hand-selected 4" kiln-fired dichroic glass focal piece, brass chain and hardware, crystal prism components, hanging materials, and full video instruction walking you through the entire assembly process from start to finish. No glass cutting required. The project can be completed using only scissors and your hands, though pliers are recommended for easier assembly.
Each kit is assembled in small batches using genuine kiln-fired dichroic glass — a light-reactive material originally developed for aerospace optics that shifts color dramatically in changing light.
Whether you're drawn to the optical effects, the calming process of making, or simply want a beautiful piece for your space, this class was created to make the experience approachable while still feeling elevated and artist-driven.
Each focal piece begins as a 4" kiln-fired glass square and is suspended in a diamond orientation for a more elongated final composition.

GLASS COLOR OPTIONS
Each kit includes one kiln-fired dichroic borosilicate glass focal piece. Due to the handmade nature of dichroic glass and the firing process, every piece will vary slightly in pattern, reflectivity, and color shift.
AVAILABLE COLORWAYS:
• Blue / Gold
• Pink / Teal
• Blue / Red
VARIANTS:
Artist's Choice — $126
A hand-selected glass color chosen by the studio. This option allows for a more streamlined production process and faster fulfillment while still ensuring each piece is visually balanced and unique.
Choose Your Glass Color — $148
Select your preferred dichroic glass colorway from the available options above. This upgrade requires additional inventory sorting, color matching, and small-batch organization during the fabrication and packing process.
Please note that dichroic glass shifts dramatically depending on lighting conditions, angle, and background color. Many pieces display multiple colors simultaneously and may appear different throughout the day as the light changes.
When will I receive my kit?
Kits will ship September 8. Your video class access unlocks once shipping begins.
Size & Materials
Focal piece: 4" kiln-fired dichroic glass square, suspended in a diamond orientation. Includes brass chain, brass hardware, a large (40mm) genuine glass crystal prism, and a small S-hook for hanging.
How to Hang It
Ready to hang once assembled — simply attach using the included small S-hook to a curtain rod, plant hook, or ceiling hook near a sunny window. For the best light effect, hang somewhere that gets direct sun for at least part of the day.
Care Instructions
Dust gently with a soft, dry cloth as needed. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners on the glass or brass hardware. No special maintenance required — dichroic glass will not fade, dull, or lose its color-shifting properties over time.
Does dichroic glass fade?
No. Dichroic glass was originally developed for optical and aerospace applications and is prized for its permanence — it shifts with light and viewing angle rather than holding one fixed color, and this effect does not fade or degrade with age or sun exposure. Each piece is made to be a timeless art object, not a seasonal decoration.
