Saturday  -  The class begins at 9.00a.m. and finishes around 5.00p.m.

The first skill to master is glasscutting. Don't be nervous,we have not had anyone yet who has not mastered this in a couple of hours.

If you want to learn copper foiling, all the techniques of pattern making, glass cutting, grinding, foiling and soldering are covered. Then you can progress onto making a panel, a mirror or a simple lampshade.

Students who want to make a traditional leaded panel will learn all the necessary techniques of leading, soldering, cementing and cleaning before progressing onto making a panel.

It may seem impossible, but with a maximum of 6 students on the course you will recieve all the help and attention you need to succeed with your project. More than that, you will have gained the confidence and knowledge to progress at home.

Sunday  -  The class begins at 9.00am

Today we carry on and complete our projects, learning more techniques and getting  help every step of the way. 

The Course finishes around 5.00pm when you can proudly take home your finished piece.

What do I need to bring?

All tools and equipment are included in the course fee.

Tea and Coffee are also provided.

We have a tea room at the Stained Glass Centre for light refreshments at lunch time.

There will be a lot of standing while cutting your glass and assembling your piece, and we recommend that you wear comfortable shoes and old clothes or protective clothing during the classes in the workshop.

Goggles are provided,but if you wear glasses you will find them more comfortable.
