Who is this course for?

This one and a half hour class is suitable for beginners and experienced students.

What does the course cover?

During this class Karen will teach you the technique of shaping specialist glass and creating your own designs in preparation for it to be fired in our kiln. Using high quality coloured and clear Bullseye glass you will create your own Cabochons - a smooth gemstone style glass shape that you can make into earrings or pendants - something for yourself or a gift for someone special.

What is included in the fee?

Your fee includes tuition by Karen, the use of tools and equipment and all materials, with the exception of Dichroic glass. 

Please note that an option to use Dichroic (reflective) glass will be available on the day but this will incur an additional charge. Each student can make up to two pendants and two sets of earrings.

There is a maximum of 6 students per class to ensure individual attention.

Please note your pieces are taken away to be fired and will be ready for completion and collection the following week.
