CoURSE Description
A brilliant night out or a blissful night in for one. Pick your colours, create a gorgeous fused glass flower display to keep A brilliant night out with a room full of like-minded people. Pick your colours, create a gorgeous fused glass flower display to keep forever, and bring a drink to make it a proper occasion.
Your Friday evening just got a whole lot more creative
This is glass fusing made sociable. Arrive at 7pm with your favourite drink and something to nibble, settle in, and spend the next two hours losing yourself in colour and glass. You’ll create a beautiful circular fused glass piece, approximately 15cm in diameter and featuring a display of flowers entirely in your chosen colours.
Prefer a bee or ladybird to a dragonfly? Just say the word. This is your piece, your way. Jennifer guides you through the process with her characteristic warmth and expertise, so even if you’ve never touched glass before, you’ll leave with something genuinely stunning.
Come with friends for a proper night out, or come solo and enjoy the rare gift of two completely creative hours to yourself. Either way, you’ll wonder why you haven’t done it sooner.
Display your finished piece your way

FAQs
Q: What should I wear?
A: Just comfortable clothes you don’t mind getting a bit dusty, and closed-toe shoes (nothing open like sandals or flip-flops). Avoid loose sleeves if possible, but we have elastic bands if needed.
Q: What's included in the course price?
A: Everything you need – all glass, tools, kiln firing, safety equipment, tea and coffee throughout the day, and biscuits. You just need to bring yourself! The only extra would be if you want to make additional pieces beyond what’s included in the course.
Q: Do I take my finished pieces home the same day?
For fusing courses, no – your pieces need to go in the kiln, so you can collect them when they’re ready (usually a week or so later) or we can post them to you but we really don’t recommend postage because glass is easily broken in the post. You can choose postage at your own risk, we charge a minimum of £8 (depending on the size of the piece) to cover postage cost & packaging.
For stained glass, copper foiling and other non-fusing courses, yes – you take them home at the end of the course.
Q: What if I don't finish my piece?
A: Don’t worry, we build in enough time for everyone to complete their projects. Jennifer keeps an eye on everyone’s progress. If you’re a bit slower, that’s fine – we’d rather you do it properly than rush.
Q: Is lunch provided?
A: We provide tea, coffee, and biscuits throughout the day, but not lunch. You’re welcome to bring sandwiches to eat in our comfy break area or outside if the weather’s nice, or there are plenty of nice pubs & cafes approx 1 mile away in the centre of Frodsham.
Q: How do I find you?
A: We’re pretty easy to find – just off the main road between Frodsham and Kingsley. We’re upstairs in the Barn at Bradley Farm Stables (look out for the horses 🙂 )

Bradley Farm,
