If you're new to stained glass work, there's no need to worry! This workshop is designed to guide you through each step of the process, cutting lines and curves to painting your design and bringing all together with lead. You'll be amazed by what you can create with some guidance and practise.

I've loved being creative my whole life so, after travelling and living in Greece for 13 years, I returned to the UK to study in Swansea, achieving a BA and MA in Architectural Glass, followed by a teaching degree in Art and Design. It was such an exciting time, learning and teaching everything I'd always loved. Later, as part of my professional development in teaching, a taster session using Precious Metal Clay was tagged onto the end of a short course and that was it, I was hooked on that too. I did evening classes for three years with Gorseion College for a City and Guilds, followed by taking up traditional silversmithing classes at the same college. I've been making jewellery and doing glasswork as a business since 2013, passing on my enthusiasm in my classes.
