Copperfoil Beginners Class

Who is this course for?

This class is aimed at beginners but suitable for all levels.

What does the course cover?

This class works with a technique called 'copperfoil' to create decorative pieces of stained glass.  Using our templates you will learn to create your piece with the guidance of our tutor.  Whichever design you choose, you will create a beautiful decoration to take home that day.  During this class you will choose your design and glass and then learn how to cut your glass to shape and solder it together to create your finished piece.  No previous knowledge required.

What is included in the fee?

Your fee includes tuition by an experienced stained glass designer, the use of tools and equipment and materials.  

We keep the classes small, to ensure you receive our full attention and have an enjoyable experience.
