Join this glass art workshop in Chalfont St Peter and discover the vibrant joy of working with fused glass. Held at the inspiring Fired Works gallery, this hands-on experience is completely made for beginners, so there's no need to worry if you've never tried it before. You'll start with a friendly, low-pressure introduction to the different types of glass and how firing schedules create various eye-catching effects – without being bombarded by dry, technical jargon. Marie will be right by your side to guide you every step of the way, helping you feel completely at ease as you play with colour and light.
You'll have access to a wonderful selection of materials, including colourful sheet glass, pre-fused cabochons, and frit, which is beautifully crushed glass in various sizes. During this relaxing two to three-hour session, you'll create two small sun catchers (or a coaster if you prefer), plus you'll choose one of the following special projects to craft:
  • A set of four coasters
  • A free-standing curve – which can also be kept flat if you prefer
  • A small chrome lantern – available for an additional £8 charge payable on the day
  • A 15cm shallow slumped dish
It's a wonderful, feel-good opportunity to switch off from the daily grind, try something new, and enjoy some wholesome fun – you're even welcome to bring along your favourite wine to sip while you create. By the end of the class, you'll have experienced an uplifting boost to your creative confidence and designed beautiful, one-of-a-kind keepsakes that will add a bright spark to your home. Your finished masterpieces will be professionally fired in the kiln and ready for you to collect in about a week.

Welcome to my creative space! My name is Marie, and I am the founder of Fired Works Glass Gallery & Studio.
After a successful 20-year career in Information Technology, I decided to follow my true passion. I have been working with glass since 2008 and am a self taught glass artist. In 2014, I transformed a run down building in the heart of Chalfont St Peter into a vibrant, working high street studio and gallery. My journey from corporate IT to creative entrepreneurship recently earned me a spot on the prestigious f:Entrepreneur Top 100 list, celebrating inspiring female business founders across the UK and the previous year one of 100 inspiring small businesses in the UK!
What We Offer at the Studio:
Our fused glass workshops are highly rated, therapeutic experiences designed to transform absolute beginners into confident creators. Surrounded by finished artwork for inspiration, you will learn the hands-on skills of cutting, layering, and designing with glass. We offer a flexible range of sessions to fit your goals:
1-Hour Taster/Children’s Sessions: Perfect for a quick, fun creative escape.
Introductory & Half-Day Workshops: Ideal for diving deeper into glass landscapes and dishes.
5-Week Comprehensive Courses: For those ready to master advanced techniques.
Private Parties: Our workshops run from Wednesday to Sunday, featuring both daytime and evening slots to fit busy schedules.
Planning a special event? If you have a group of 3 or more people, I love hosting private bookings. We can easily arrange a flexible, bespoke date for birthday parties, team building events, or a creative night out with friends.
When I’m not teaching, the gallery operates as "Fired Works and Friends, " showcasing my speciality bespoke glass landscapes alongside beautiful creations from local silver jewellers, knitters, and illustrators.
I can't wait to welcome you to the studio, and help you discover the magic of fused glass.
