Fused and Slumped Glass Candle Votive/Vase
This is a 2 hour fused glass taster which gives you a fun and creative experimentation with glass.. This is not a technical course but a chance to have fun and try something new.
You will learn how to cut glass with snips and then be introduced to a range of products – frits and powders, coloured glass, and confetti. You will be shown a number of techniques for applying the products .
This is a great experience if you are looking for something to do with some friends or family. Maybe you just want to try something new, perhaps create a piece for a special gift.
Whatever your reason for coming, you can be sure you will have of fun and creativity!
You do not have to have any creative experience or previous knowledge of glass to come to this taster. Just come along and enjoy the process and I bet you will be surprised at the results.
You will be making a small panel of glass as a warm up piece, to get a feel for the process. Followed by a larger square that will be kiln fired to your design. Then refired for your piece to Slump into a 3Dform. Which can be used to hold a candle or as a small vase.
