WHAT: Join Zoe or Jackie for our skill builder workshop in fused glass, where the finished product is a beautiful paperweight/ decorative sculpture.

This workshop is open to all abilities - if you've never done fused glass before, its a great way to get an idea of the techniques involved, and a great way for intermediate clients to develop skills in small and detailed pieces.

We will look at:

  • Enamel painting

  • Powder application

  • Stringer heat work

  • Wire sculpting

  • How to cut and break glass (the piece is made up of 6 10x5cm pieces of clear glass)

  • How to create a mould kiln paper template

  • Firing schedule information

We will fire your piece slowly in the kiln - we will email you when ready for collection.

WHEN: Monday 19th January, 11am-5pm

MORE INFO: The practical lesson runs 11-1pm, 1-2pm is for lunch (please bring a packed lunch with you) and then 2-5pm

WHERE: Globe 2, Holme Mills, HD7 6LS - head through the big green gate just to the left of Zapato (by the small carpark) and follow our signage until you find the big orange ‘G’ sign

HOW MUCH: £75 per person or £140 for 2 when you book together.

Please note: If the course has less than 5 clients booked, there is a chance of the course being cancelled. For this reason, we recommend booking sooner rather than later to avoid disappointment. If the course is cancelled, we will offer a full refund or transfer to a similar course.

If you decide to cancel, we are unable to refund you, and instead will offer you a transfer if you give us 7 days notice.
