What's included in the price?

From a very basic introduction to professional stained glass techniques are covered within the workshop. The beginners will learn the essential stained glass skills: from design, drawing, glass cutting, leading and so on. All equipment and a generous abundance of materials provided to use during the course. You can bring an empty sketchbook or with some of your rough doodles but it is not necessary at all. You will be provided a glass piece or a selection of small pieces (about 6-7 pieces) to work from. You will be able to finish your project within 6 hours during a one day workshop and will be able to take your panel with you. All materials and tools are included in the cost except if you would like to buy something extra. Gloves and aprons are also provided so you do not have to bring your own. Though you are welcome to bring your own tools if you want to. Please do bring a packed lunch - tea and coffee is also provided at any time during the workshop. :) Please arrive by 8:55 am for a 9.00 am start... and we'll have the kettle on!
