Samantha Nightingale reviewed: Glass Experience Day

"Course was great, excellent teaching and oppurtunity to make items to take home. Learned a lot more about glass bead making that I could apply to my home hobbying. Both teachers were very freindly and helpful. Overall great experience."

Kevin & Chrissy reviewed: Glass Experience Day

"My wife and I celebrated our wedding anniversary by spending the day with Andy and Ruth on the Glass Experience workshop. It was our first attempt at lampwork and Ruth gave very detailed instruction and guidance. We learned how to make beads and even did some glass blowing to make a Christmas bauble (quite a challenge but great fun!). Andy showed us how to cut glass to make patterns for fused glass coasters and also some free standing glass panels with flowers. We left the items with them for firing and these were promptly shipped in very protective packaging. We had great fun unwrapping the mementos for our anniversary. Highly recommended."

"A fantastic course! Andrew is so knowledgeable and more than happy to pass all this on. He has a huge range of equipment and helped us create 3 pieces each, tailored to what we were interested in. Highly recommended!"

John Simpson reviewed: Glass Fusing Flowers and Under Sea Taster Session

"The session was great fun and Andy's technical knowledge really made it interesting. We learned a lot about how glass behaves and how to work with it. Definitely recommended, especially if you like knowing how things work. "
