Fused Glass Workshop at Fusing Ideas Glass Studio, New Street
Time 10.30am – 1.30pm
This workshop is suitable for complete beginners, with all materials and equipment you will need is provided, as well as lots of guidance to make gorgeous glass work.
This year we will explore the use of metal (copper) inclusions, fired between 2 pieces of glass. Then you will use copper foil (optional) along with beautiful, coloured glass to create your own design. You will have a choice of free-standing forms (a wave or a bend) either of which will look fabulous on display in your home.
Whatever inspires you, your course tutor, Jill Bagnall, will teach you what you need to know and advise you throughout.
After the workshop, your work will need to be kiln fired (twice) and will be ready for you to collect, about 10 dayslater.
