Abi reviewed: Stained Glass using the Copper Foil Technique

"We have had an amazing day with Elaine. She guided us through each stage of the process giving us time to work independently and seek her help as much as we needed. So many more stages and techniques than we had realised! We honestly didn’t think we would create something as good as we did. Lovely setting and hospitality throughout the whole day. Thank you so much."

Stained Glass by Elaine Alexandra responded:

"Thank you for taking the time to review your workshop. As you said in your review, there are several stages to completing a project and there is a lot of information to take in and absorb especially when starting as a "newbie" to stained glass. I hope your dragonfly and bumblebee will look great in your garden. With Best Wishes Elaine"

"I wanted to try Stained Glass, so when I found out my friend also wanted to try I purchased this as a 50th birthday gift for her. We chose our designs and emailed them over to Eliane. On arrival we were greeted and shown to the workshop, Elaine explained how the day would pan out step by step, showed us the equipment and then we began. It was really relaxed environment and Elaine was on hand to support us through each step. We are both really pleased with our stained glass and would highly recommend Elaine's course. Thank you for a excellent day, even with the hot temperatures!!"

Stained Glass by Elaine Alexandra responded:

"Thank you for taking the time to review your day. I am always pleased when attendees are really happy with their projects at the end of the day. It would have been nice if the temperature outside had been a few degrees cooler but never the less you both went away with lovely finished sun catchers. Elaine x"

Sarah reviewed: Stained Glass using the Copper Foil Technique

"We had a really fun, informative day in a beautiful setting with Elaine making stained glass sun catchers. She had lots of templates for us to choose from, and was happy to make one if we wanted something slightly different. There was lots of colour textured glass to choose from. She was very hands on, helping us along the way. I'd definitely go back and make something else."

Meghan reviewed: Stained Glass using the Copper Foil Technique

"We want to say a huge thank you to Elaine for hosting us yesterday for a stained glass workshop. We had never done this before and were a bit over ambitious with our designs, which took longer than anticipated, but Elaine was so kind and patient with us. She really took the time to help us finish our pieces so that we both ended up with something we loved. She's incredibly skillful and knowledgable and an excellent teacher. She also has 3 super cute dogs who were adorable extra hosts. I'd highly recommend this course, thank you so much Elaine, I love my suncatcher!"

Stained Glass by Elaine Alexandra responded:

"Hi Meghan Thank you for the review of your workshop. You certainly did come with some ambitious designs but we succeeded and you both went home with two beautiful pieces which you should be very proud of and which I hope you will look at and enjoy for many years to come. With Best Wishes Elaine"

Sophia reviewed: Stained Glass using the Copper Foil Technique

"I had such a lovely time at this workshop. Elaine was knowledgable, encouraging and very open to our choices and tastes. She was welcoming with tea and biscuits and lots of chat, and spent so much time guiding and advising to make sure I left with something I was happy with (which I did!). Beautiful setting in Elaine’s gorgeously planted garden and made all the better by regular visits from her adorable little dogs. I had the BEST time, thank you Elaine! "

"Elaine was a great teacher at leading us through each process step by step. She has a while load of templates as well as allowing creative freedom, she talked it's through how to do each step, the importance of why we are doing it and making sure we were safe while we did it! Elaine was on hand to help us out throughout the day whilst still letting us have a go and explore different techniques! It was a lovely little space with all the tools we needed and great value for money. We will definitely be coming again to make different pieces!! Thank you 😊"

Tracey Frost reviewed: Stained Glass using the Copper Foil Technique

"My sister bought me a course for Christmas and we attended today for a fabulous informative day with Elaine. Workshop in her beautiful garden - lots of choices in design and examples to choose from. Elaine was super helpful and very supportive to us two very “uncrafty” newbies to working with glass. With help we both came away with pieces of art that are beautiful and will continue to bring delight every time we look at then. Elaine’s hospitality was exemplary, even making us a cup of tea with our lunch and the cuddles with her very well behaved dogs was an added bonus - would recommend 100 % "

Stained Glass by Elaine Alexandra responded:

"Hi Tracey Thank you taking the time to review your day with me. Most people who come on this course are "newbies" to stained glass and I am always really pleased to see someone create their chosen project learning new techniques and leaving at the end of the workshop with something they will enjoy for years to come. These are skills which can be built on if you choose to do another workshop and with practice it does get easier. With Best Wishes Elaine"

Adrian reviewed: Stained Glass using the Copper Foil Technique

"If you are considering giving stained glass making a go, I would highly recommend booking a course with Elaine. She is very warm and welcoming, extremely patient and very knowledgeable. There are plenty of templates and materials to choose from. Both of us very much enjoyed the day and the time really flew by! We both went home with something that far exceeded our expectations too, although I needed a little help with mine as I chose something a little ambitious for a first timer. I am so glad that I chose this particular course and I think it is worth every penny considering the materials and tools provided, expertise and hands on guidance that you wouldn't get from a large class. It has given us a greater appreciation of how much time and skill goes into the craft. "

Stained Glass by Elaine Alexandra responded:

"Thank you for taking the time to review of our day spent together on Saturday. I am very pleased that you were both very happy with your projects. It was not a problem at all to help you as and when required. I appreciate that participants will find some aspects of the process easier than other parts and as beginners each stage is new and helping you achieve your chosen project is what it is all about. With Best Wishes Elaine"
