Sophia reviewed: Stained Glass using the Copper Foil Technique

"I had such a lovely time at this workshop. Elaine was knowledgable, encouraging and very open to our choices and tastes. She was welcoming with tea and biscuits and lots of chat, and spent so much time guiding and advising to make sure I left with something I was happy with (which I did!). Beautiful setting in Elaine’s gorgeously planted garden and made all the better by regular visits from her adorable little dogs. I had the BEST time, thank you Elaine! "

"Elaine was a great teacher at leading us through each process step by step. She has a while load of templates as well as allowing creative freedom, she talked it's through how to do each step, the importance of why we are doing it and making sure we were safe while we did it! Elaine was on hand to help us out throughout the day whilst still letting us have a go and explore different techniques! It was a lovely little space with all the tools we needed and great value for money. We will definitely be coming again to make different pieces!! Thank you 😊"

Stained Glass by Elaine Alexandra responded:

Tracey Frost reviewed: Stained Glass using the Copper Foil Technique

"My sister bought me a course for Christmas and we attended today for a fabulous informative day with Elaine. Workshop in her beautiful garden - lots of choices in design and examples to choose from. Elaine was super helpful and very supportive to us two very “uncrafty” newbies to working with glass. With help we both came away with pieces of art that are beautiful and will continue to bring delight every time we look at then. Elaine’s hospitality was exemplary, even making us a cup of tea with our lunch and the cuddles with her very well behaved dogs was an added bonus - would recommend 100 % "

Stained Glass by Elaine Alexandra responded:

"Hi Tracey Thank you taking the time to review your day with me. Most people who come on this course are "newbies" to stained glass and I am always really pleased to see someone create their chosen project learning new techniques and leaving at the end of the workshop with something they will enjoy for years to come. These are skills which can be built on if you choose to do another workshop and with practice it does get easier. With Best Wishes Elaine"

Adrian reviewed: Stained Glass using the Copper Foil Technique

"If you are considering giving stained glass making a go, I would highly recommend booking a course with Elaine. She is very warm and welcoming, extremely patient and very knowledgeable. There are plenty of templates and materials to choose from. Both of us very much enjoyed the day and the time really flew by! We both went home with something that far exceeded our expectations too, although I needed a little help with mine as I chose something a little ambitious for a first timer. I am so glad that I chose this particular course and I think it is worth every penny considering the materials and tools provided, expertise and hands on guidance that you wouldn't get from a large class. It has given us a greater appreciation of how much time and skill goes into the craft. "

Stained Glass by Elaine Alexandra responded:

"Thank you for taking the time to review of our day spent together on Saturday. I am very pleased that you were both very happy with your projects. It was not a problem at all to help you as and when required. I appreciate that participants will find some aspects of the process easier than other parts and as beginners each stage is new and helping you achieve your chosen project is what it is all about. With Best Wishes Elaine"

"I had the absolute best time learning from Elaine. From the moment you enter her beautiful garden you know that this is going to be a wonderful experience. Her studio was the perfect size for the 2 of us and she did an excellent job of slowly explaining what exactly to do, especially because we have never done this before. She was very patient and answered all our questions to the fullest. It was a day to remember and I am so thankful for the time spent at her beautiful studio. Thank you! "
