Fused glass workshop - Plymouth

I thoroughly enjoyed the fused glass workshop. A relaxed atmosphere with friendly people. Sheena was so helpful and gave you inspiration to create your own piece of glass art. I had never been to anything like this before but would love to go again and would highly recommend it. Sheena even provided tea and cake, a lovely touch! Thankyou.
