Description

Glass fusing luxury Christmas tea light holders - 3-hour workshop. Make a set of two beautiful 15cm tall fused glass tea light holders with stylish wooden bases on this fun workshop. On this workshop you'll create two sophisticated fused glass tea light holders like the ones we sell in the gallery. You'll also gain an insight in to some of the basics of glass fusing - a gentle introduction to an artform many of our students have gone on to enjoy developing in their own home. You'll be decorating pre-cut glass 10x15cm sections with a wide range of coloured glass frits (crushed glass), enamel pens, glass noodles and more to your own designs. The workshop provides enough materials to make two tea lights so you'll have plenty of opportunity to try out your ideas.

FAQs

Sadly not - due to the nature of the materials our classes are for adults only.

Yes.
With all one-day and longer stained glass classes we include an info pack with details of the tools you've used and suppliers plus reminders of techniques used. This isn't included in half-day classes.
We'll be delighted to help you decided what's needed.

For fusing classes we're happy to advise on tools, materials and kilns on request.

Materials are included in all beginners classes - fusing and stained glass.
Please bring reading glasses if you use them, and sturdy fully enclosed shoes (no sandals).
Aprons, googles and gloves are provided where needed.

Because you will be using lead and solder containing lead on stained glass classes.
Lead is known to pose a higher risk to babies than to adults.

We welcome participating friends or partners.
Sadly there isn't room at most classes for non-participating friends or partners.

Of course!
Fused glass will need to be collected after firing - we will contact you when ready.

This depends on which class you're planning to book.
For stained glass classes - it will be difficult to complete the class if you have severe arthritis or similar.

For fused glass classes - we suggest you choose a class which doesn't involve glass cutting - feel free to contact us to discuss.

Some of our classes are for improvers - these are described as such in the listing.
