Stained Glass Saturday Workshop

On Saturday we held the last of this years ‘Day Workshops’ in stained glass.

There was a small group of students, both had been given the Saturday workshop as a birthday gift.

An enjoyable and relaxing morning was spent with an introduction to the craft and learning how to cut glass to a pattern.


After lunch in the Organic cafe, the afternoon was spent making their own panels. Both participants chose the same geometric design; but by choosing different coloured glass & textures, at the end of the day had made their own unique glass panel.

Students ‘End of Year’ Slideshow

Classes, Workshops and Courses 2012 to 2013

Its been a great year of workshops, classes and courses held at the studio.  It has been a mix of stained glass and fused glass and the standard of work has been very good.

Many of the students have returned to enrol on another course throughout the year and this shows from their high standard of craft skills and their unique designs.  I have put together a selection of photos of glasswork from the students and participants of the past year.

Stained Glass Workshop

On Saturday we held a one day workshop in stained glass.  The students learnt the basics of the craft, which gave them a taster of the processes involved in creating a leaded panel.  Designs were either chosen on the day or developed before the session.  Some of the participants had previous knowledge and skills of glass cutting and were able to undertake more complex patterns.  The students worked well, with a busy and focused day.  The panels turned out great and were left with the studio to cement and finish this week.   After their final clean and polish they look fantastic.
