Glass fusing for beginners will provide you with hours of creative fun. Come along yourself or get together some friends. You could even buy this as a gift.
On this workshop you will spend the day creating 4 wonderful products. We will begin with a brief introduction to health and safety and this will be followed by your first task. I will teach you how to cut glass effectively, clean it and apply extra features to make a hanging decoration.
Task two will be something a little smaller and more delicate – jewellery. You can practice your cutting and joining skills in this task by designing and creating either a pendant, brooch or pair of earrings. You will also be given the chance to use dichroic glass which will give some beautiful effects to wow your friends.
After a short break we will move onto our 3rd piece – a coaster/tile/dish. Although a straightforward shape, I will show you a number of components that you could bring together to make a fabulous product.
Finally, after lunch you will make your last and largest piece of the day. You will have a choice of product which can be discussed at the time based on your earlier experiences and what you feel comfortable doing.
Please note you will not be able to take your products away with you on the day as they will need to go into the kiln for several hours. Products can be collected the following week. Alternatively they can be delivered by post.
Price: £80 including all materials and kiln firing
Drinks and snacks will be provided but you will need to bring your own packed lunch

Had an absolutely wonderful day on the glass fusion workshop. Talked through each stage and inspired to do more. Lovely food and company. Such a great day. Looking forward to seeing my pieces when they come out the kiln.
