First you will have to make the stained glass:
Step 1: Pick a pattern, glass, & tools.
If you want to find out more about selecting patterns, glass, or tools see, http://www.thestorefinder.com/glass/library/wardell.html#exquisit ,or the ,http://www.thestorefinder.com/glass/library/howtotools.html#,Pattern section by Inland Craft.

Step 2: Number the pattern and cut it apart.

Step 3: Trace the pattern onto the glass.

Step 4: Score the glass.
.
Step 5: Break out the pieces.

Step 6: Grind the pieces to fit.

Step 7: Foil all the pieces.

Step 8: Solder the pieces together.

Step 9: Clean & finish the piece.

Now that you have made the stained glass it's time to sell it.
First, you need to decide where to market your crafts
You could sell directly to friends and family.
You can set up a booth at a local craft show or bazaar.
Or you could sell on e-bay.
Second is Pricing
You need to keep track of the cost in making them. How much do the supplies cost? This needs to be all supplies, even incidentals such as glue. The hardest part in figuring cost is time. How much time is involved and what is your time worth? Do not over exaggerate. The price will also depend upon the size of the item. Items similar to what you will be making sell from $3.99 for a 2" piece to $20.00 for a 10.5" piece, on e-bay.
