Copper Foiled Lantern Workshop

Create your own stunning copper-foiled lamp in this full-day workshop.



6 hours Class size 5 to 7 guests       £105 (PayPal Pay in 3 available)

Set the tone of a room with your own Stained Glass Candle Lantern and learn the copper-foiling technique; a modern construction process that allows you to create 3D shapes using copper tape and solder. In this hand-on day course you'll be able to pick from a wide selection of glass colours to make your lantern from. You also have the option to choose a patina mirrored back to give a subtle antique effect. You'll learn how to cut and solder your glass pieces together and end the day with your own piece of art for the home or garden which can be used hanging or standing.
  • Choose from a wide selection of beautiful coloured glass
  • You will have the option to choose a patina mirrored back to give a subtle antique effect
  • The result will be a one-off eye-catching lantern that can be hung on a wall or stood on a table
  • Your lantern's finished size is 20cmx8cm
This workshop utilises the full process from start to finish, and you will receive all of the necessary information to continue copper-foiling with confidence should you wish to pursue it further.
