Your tutor, Trisha, is looking forward to meeting you and says: “Come and spend a relaxed afternoon creating your own Christmas decoration or Christmas gift for someone special, out of twinkly glass. In this 2½ hour session I will show you how.There is nothing quite as magical as glass at Christmas! All the fairy lights and candles cause it to sparkle merrily. Pop a decoration on your tree; when it gently moves it will catch your eye and your focus. Stand your creation in front of a candle and it comes alive. Just glorious!
Once you have decided what to make, be it a hankerchief candle holder, tealight, free standing wave, sun-catcher or smaller-shaped decorations, you then make your design on a flat rectangle of clear glass. You can keep your creation flat such as a sun-catcher shape or smaller tree decorations, or your creation can be ‘slumped’ – fired over a shaped mould – to make a bowl, dish, tray or ‘wave’. As this a Christmas session I will be bringing just a variety of Chrismas coloured glass with me including flat sheets of glass to cut to size, cabochons, frit, and confetti. A cabochon is a pre-fired bead of glass, frit is the term for lots of small pieces of glass and confetti is thin paper-like slivers of glass.
Come and join me and have some Chrismassy fun!”
£45 + 94p card fee. This includes all the materials needed to make your beautiful Christmas glass decoration / gift and refreshments during the afternoon (excluding lunch)
