Fused Glass Pets and Friends in New Romney, Kent

Description

Immortalise your beloved pet—or any animal you adore—in stunning fused glass art. This unique workshop gives you the chance to create a one-of-a-kind piece that captures the personality, colour, and charm of your furry, feathered, or even scaly friend. Ahead of the session, you’ll be asked to send a favourite photo of your chosen animal so your tutor can help prepare a personalised design plan that brings them to life in glass. During the workshop, you’ll learn how to use coloured glass, frits, stringers, and decorative details to recreate distinctive markings, features, and textures. From the tilt of a dog’s head to the sparkle in a cat’s eyes or the striking pattern of a more exotic animal, the session is designed to help you capture those details that make your companion so unique. Perfect for both beginners and those with creative experience, the class is relaxed, fun, and full of opportunities to explore your artistic side. With small group sizes, you’ll enjoy plenty of personal guidance throughout the process. Refreshments and biscuits are served during the session, and your finished piece will be professionally completed after the workshop, ready for collection at a later date.

What's included in the price?
