Copper Foil Christmas in New Romney, Kent

Description

This seasonal stained glass workshop focuses on creating Christmas decorations using the traditional Tiffany-style copper foil technique. You will learn the core stages involved in making decorative stained glass pieces, resulting in finished decorations designed to catch the light and be enjoyed year after year. During the session, you will be guided through cutting and shaping coloured glass, applying copper foil, soldering your design and adding finishing details. A wide range of coloured and textured glass is available, allowing you to follow a suggested festive design or adapt elements to suit your own style. Depending on your pace and preference, you may choose to create a single statement decoration or a small collection of smaller pieces. The workshop is suitable for complete beginners as well as those with some experience working with glass.
