Upcoming stained glass courses in Devon, with spots still available. Why not treat yourself to some creative fun as the nights draw in and the seasons change. I’ve got a few options over the next few months.

25th October – Traditional leaded lights – You can design and make your own stained glass panel roughly A4 in size. Learn how to create a workable design, cut the glass to a pattern, then lead and solder your panel. Creating your own beautiful work of art.

29th November – Kiln fired painting on glass – Learn the basics of how craftspeople have been adding painted detailing onto glass for century’s. By applying tracing lines (your main outlines) these then get fired at lunch time. Then in the afternoon add depth and texture with some shading to create wonderful artistic panes of glass. These will then be fired at the end of the day.

31st January- Copper foiling, Tiffany style – Think Tiffany lamps, but much simpler! This is a way of working with small bit of glass where instead of leading, you wrap copper tape around each piece then run solder along each join. This technique allows you to create not only 2D patterns, but 3D pieces as well. Lots of fun!
