Workshops are up and running…………Unleash your creative talents!

You’ve enjoyed an introductory session, learnt some basic skills and got lots of ideas. Why not now book a workshop session to really unleash your creative skills?

How it works:

We are here to support you all the way as you design, cut and assemble your own pieces whilst being encouraged to use lots of different processes and molds.

  • Put to use and further develop your skills
  • Access to books on glass for ideas to help you develop your own style
  • Learn about inclusions (metal pieces to be fused with the glass)
  • Get creative with frit (small pieces of glass), powder and other materials
  • Get to know how the kiln works and what can be achieved using different settings
  • Fire your pieces several times (or at least twice) to develop your work further
  • Finally slump your pieces in a mold of your choice

Testimonials

I can't believe how much I learned in just one day with Handmade in Wallingford! From knowing nothing about working with glass, I managed to make a beautiful light catcher, a coaster, and a soap dish. Judith made it easy to understand, and encouraged me to experiment with designs. I'm so pleased with what I made, and now have loads of ideas of things I'd like to make in the future!
