'Metal Inclusions' Half Day Workshop (3 hours)
Designed for complete beginners!
Discover the magic of mixing metal inclusions with glass and how they react together after being fired in the kiln...You will make a selection of samplers with a variety of metal sheets, foils and wires which you can turn into a piece of wall art, then make either four coasters or a square platter using the metal inclusions and designs of your choice. This half day workshop involves cutting glass but if you don't feel comfortable with doing so, ready cut glass blanks will be provided. Enjoy!

Cutting and assembling glass require some dexterity as you will need to apply a little bit of pressure on the glass whilst using the appropriate tools. Please bear this in mind if you suffer from arthritis or a previous hand/arm injury. If in doubt, please contact Claudia at hello@glassbyclaudia.com.
PLEASE NOTE : We offer toilet facilities. However, the studio is part of a converted farm building and unfortunately, access to the toilet within our studio is via a set of 5 steps and therefore unsuitable for wheelchair access. We are very sorry about this and thank you for your understanding.
