Who Can Join

These courses welcome:

  • Beginners with good hand dexterity and the ability to stand at a workbench.
  • Those looking to refresh their skills.
  • Past participants of my one-day workshop who want to take the next step.

What You’ll Learn

Over the 8 weeks, you’ll gain all the essential skills needed to create your own stained glass piece:

  • Designing and creating a cutline pattern
  • Cutting and shaping glass safely.
  • Assembling your project, learning to lead and solder.
  • Using traditional techniques to bring your design to life.

By the end, you’ll have a finished stained glass creation to take home and treasure.

Why Join

Learning in a small group is not only supportive but also inspiring. Creating alongside others allows you to share ideas, see different approaches, and learn from each other’s designs—something you simply don’t get when working alone or following an online course.

It’s a chance to slow down, focus on a mindful craft, and enjoy the satisfaction of making something beautiful with your own hands.

Thursday Stained glass course

Starting 19th September – one place available

Early September on holiday in Brittany, I had chance to look inside a few local churches and was rather blown away at the beauty and complexity of the painted stained glass windows!

On a more achievable fun level, the opportunity to join one of my stained glass courses and make your own stained glass panel, minus the paint, has just come up. Now, we wouldn’t make such a complex design, but I find that glass is such uplifting eye candy that you wouldn’t be disappointed with the outcome and for years to come can enjoy the sun lighting up the glass.

The space on the Thursday Morning course, is short notice for starting on the 19th September, but you never know, someone may be free and this is will be just the ticket for starting for Autumn.

Do contact me if you would like to join Contact

Now for some Brittany Stained glass.

Stained glass workshops starting late May 2021

It’s a finger’s crossed’, feeling positive, that I will be able to start teaching stained glass workshops again from the 17th May ’20.

New Dates will go up on the website, once I have offered spaces first to those who had their workshops postponed. Keep an eye on the website or be the first to know and ask to be added to the mailing list. Contact Page.

In the meantime during the lock-downs one of the things I have been up to is making a few stained glass panels as commissions and for friends. The last one is a very belated birthday gift for a good friend, in hues of oranges and pinks, finally made with lock-down spare time on my hands. The aim was to use off cuts I already in the studio, a recycling theme. I love hand blown pink glass so much it was almost hard to part with.

The pink glass is made by the only hand-blown glass manufacturer I am aware of in England, English Antique Glass
