On Saturday afternoon we held a fused glass workshop for a small group of young people.
The afternoon went well and they took their time to work on designs for a hanging panel and created unique artworks.
Their fused glass panels were made to their designs using a combination of coloured frits, stringers, gems and glass shapes.
Glass designer & maker Paul Floyd will lead afternoon sessions on glass fusing. Teaching the basics of fusing, cutting glass to a pattern and working with coloured sheet glass, frits and powders. You will create an original piece of glasswork and make your own fused glass light-catcher. Only 4 people per workshop for maximum individual attention.
