Explore the world of glass art and make a colourful fish with a bendy body. Whether you're taking it home to add some nautical touches to your shelves, or giving it to a friend as a unique gift, this glass workshop is a great way to pick up a new skill and unleash your creative side.

Guided by your talented teacher, you will be shown how to safely cut and break sheet glass to fit your pattern or design. Using a template, you will make your fish shape, selecting colours and decorations that inspire you.

Once your fish design is ready, you will place it in the kiln with wire attachments and it will be fired for around 22 hours at a temperature of 745c. This brings all the parts together so it can stand up on its own and be ready to display.

Your funky and freaky fish can stand on a metal post or hang with an attached hook, it's entirely up to you and what kind of DIY home decor you love. A few days after this glass fusing workshop, your fish will be ready to collect and take home.

Overlooking the English Channel with views of Looe Island in one direction and Rame Head peninsular in the other, The Glass Shack is situated in a stunning location on the South East Coast of Cornwall.

Having spent most of her working life in corporate finance and business management, Caroline came to work with glass later in life but immediately knew it would be where her future would lie. Mostly self-taught, learning through experimentation and trial and error, she is now happily working alongside her husband, Steve, the “woodmaster” who sources and prepares all the wood bases for the glass pieces.
