Description

Course Dates

Dates are very flexible; please get in touch for the next available date. We can run them midweek and at weekends.

What can I make?

We are not prescriptive in what you can make. So long as it fits in the kiln and can be made within the timeframe. In a 1 day workshop we have a little more time to be a touch more ambitious with our designs.

You may wish to create a microwave kiln jewellery set in the morning and a tea light or light catcher in the afternoon.

If you have a specific idea in mind let us know and we will advise if we can make it in the time allotted.

  • Choose from 2 of the following to make on your workshop (this is not an exhaustive list);
    • 2 x 10cm square coasters
    • 2 x small light catchers (approx 10cm x 5cm)
    • 1 curved tea light catcher
    • 1 waved tea light catcher
    • 1 small dish / bowl (approx 15cm x 15cm)
    • Christmas decorations
    • Jewellery set (e.g. pendant and earrings)

What will I learn?

  • Cutting glass
  • Designing a simple fused glass piece
  • Assembling a fused glass piece for firing
  • A variety of glass fusing techniques depending on your design

What’s included?

  • Use of all tools and equipment in our glass studio
  • All materials required to complete your piece
  • Up to 2 firings in our specialist glass kiln
    (Typically we will tack fuse or fully fuse your piece on one firing, then fire again if you wish to ‘slump’ the piece into a shape on a former)
  • Tea, coffee and lots of biscuits freely available to fuel your creativity, plus a light lunch (we are a 5 star food hygiene rated catering venue)
  • Please let us know if you have any allergies / dietary requirements so we can cater for you
  • If you would like your glass artwork posting on to you there is an extra fee to cover postage
