Course Breakdown
Day 1:
Learn all the basics of fused glass including easy and safe glass cutting, and work with coloured glass, frits, confetti, glitters, bubbles and stringers or noodles! Create a small coloured pebble or letter project, a beautiful sculptural free-standing birch tree panel then a bowl with a design of your choice in the afternoon.

For those thinking of going into fused glass and buying a kiln, we will have a section about kiln and studio set-up, hints and tips, materials, suppliers and glass types. Enough information to get you started and interesting for those here just to enjoy the class. We work with bullseye glass, spectrum and float glass

Day 2:
Create a 25 x 25cm embossed glass panel, or you may split this into two or three separate panels. You can work with enamels, cut glass, stringers, confetti, enamels, and glitters and also incorporate an embossed or sculpted design. We have lots of templates and we will assist you with your own design.

You will also have the opportunity to slump and play transforming glass bottles, a fun way of recycling!

  • Your fused glass panel will incorporate everything you have learned over the two day fused glass course at The Silver Zebra Studio.
  • Time allowing, you are free to create other projects or samples here! Often an exciting time as you are free to just play.
  • Handouts are available that cover slumping, sample kiln schedules, problem-solving, hints and tips and advice on materials.
