NOTE: To see how many spaces are left, scroll to the bottom of this page, if bookings are closed there are no spaces available, otherwise, you will see a drop down box with a number on it, that shows how many spaces you can book. If you don’t see the drop down box then there is only 1 space available.

In this session we will be working with metal foils, which we will cut and score, and metal wires, which we will cut, bend, and hammer. We will learn different techniques for working with wire to achieve different effects and also how different metals combine, react together and how that affects the result. The metals will be placed between glass so that the design can be captured.

Working with metals can give you the opportunity to create detailed pieces.

These sessions involve loud noises: hammering of metal wires on small anvils. If you are sensitive to noise (and even if you aren’t), you may wish to bring ear plugs to wear while we are working. Safety goggles will be provided.

The glass pieces will need to stay in the kiln for around 24 hours from firing to cooling, afterwards they can be picked up or sent by post. If you want your pieces sent by post it will be an additional £5.

You have 4 hours to complete 1 metal glass piece.

In each of the workshops, there are 4 spaces available, 2 tables with a glass divider in-between. There will be disinfectant for people to use as they come in. Every station has its own materials available for creating your decorations, and after every workshop I clean the stations. Tea and coffee are available. If you want you can bring your own mug with you.

If you are interested in booking a space, please signup below. Payment can be made on the day with cash or card.

I hope you are ready to create memorable decorations for yourself, or as special gifts for family and friends.
