What will I learn?
You'll be introduced to the tools, techniques, and processes involved in making beautiful stained glass pieces, with plenty of hands-on practice and support along the way. Whether you're exploring a new hobby or looking to refine your existing skills, this course offers a rewarding and inspiring creative experience.
While stained glass making takes time and patience, you'll be amazed at what can be achieved each week — and the sense of pride that comes with completing your own hand-crafted item.
Over 4 weeks, you'll learn key techniques including:
- Glass cutting
- Grinding
- Copper foiling
- Soldering
You'll receive step-by-step guidance and support throughout, allowing you to work at your own pace as you build confidence and creativity.
Who is the course for?
The class is ideal for all, but because of the lead content of the solder, this workshop is not suitable if you are pregnant or breast feeding.
Our tutor Jeanette will guide and encourage you through the process. By the end of the class you will have a unique and beautiful creation to take home with you, as well as an understanding of the techniques and tools involved if you decide to move on to projects of your own.
Will I have to provide anything?
All materials, tools, and equipment are provided, along with a selection of patterns to choose from. If you have your own design in mind, this extended course is ideal, giving you the flexibility and time to work on a personalised project.
We suggest you wear older clothes, and a long-sleeved top.
