Workshop - Festive Decorations -16th November 10.30-1pm
Join Helen on the craft centre’s Christmas season launch day and get into the festive spirit by making your own set of glass decorations!
You will be shown the process of making hand cut paper stencils to print geometric repeat patterns. Alternatively choose from a selection of stamps or create your own freehand design. Helen will demonstrate how to apply coloured and metallic enamels and add texture and sparkle to your piece with fused glass detail.
You can choose to make three round or diamond shaped decorations.
After the session your pieces will be kiln fired and have any fixings added. They will be ready within a few weeks, in time for advent! Pieces can be collected from the studio or posted which can be paid for on the day of the workshop.

Classes take place at Manchester Craft and Design Centre in our dedicated workshop, next to the studio shop. The sessions are very relaxed and held in small groups of up to 6 people. Suitable for anyone aged 14+ from complete beginners to those with some experience of printing or fused glass. No matter your making skills, hopefully you will enjoy learning a new process and create your own unique glass piece.
Tickets include all materials, tea coffee and biscuits on the day and kiln firings after the workshop. Finished pieces are usually available within 2-3 weeks and can be collected from the studio or posted to you. Private group sessions can be booked on alternative dates, If you are purchasing tickets as a gift or have any other questions please get in touch .
