From: £58.00
Course dates
- 10th April 7pm – 9pm
CoURSE Description
Celebrate lighter evenings and the return of colour with this fun and creative fused glass S-Curve workshop while listening to the music of Queen!
During this relaxed evening session, you’ll create a beautiful self-standing fused glass curve measuring 30cm long x 11cm high. Choose to design a vibrant floral scene with leaves, blossoms and maybe even a bumblebee or dragonfly — or, if flowers aren’t your thing, create a seascape complete with beach huts or a lighthouse. The choice is entirely yours.
Jen and Karen will guide you step-by-step as you cut, layer and arrange your glass to build your chosen design. You’ll learn how to combine colour, shape and texture to create a striking piece that will look beautiful displayed in your home.
Once complete, your work will be kiln fired and carefully shaped into its elegant S-curve form, creating a freestanding finished piece.
To make the evening extra special, we’ll have Queen playing on the big screen to keep the atmosphere lively and fun.
Bring a bottle of your favourite tipple and some nibbles — we’ll provide the wine glasses.
It’s the perfect excuse to gather your friends for a creative night out.

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 🙂 )
