A great opportunity to spend time in a professional studio and to start to develop your own style with this magical material.
Kym came this March for a half day workshop. Here’s what she said.
‘Spent a half day with Sue on a glass fusing workshop for my soon to be daughter in law Ellie's hen do. It was fantastic and we all had a really brilliant time. The workshop was such a relaxed space and Sue was very friendly and informative. A hands-on workshop which we all loved, so excited to see what our creations look like when fired! Highly recommend this event!
Maria attended a half day session in February. Here’s her review on google.
Outstanding experience. Sue educates you sufficiently to enable you to create your own unique art. The half day fusion is perfect for all skill levels. I was amazed at what I was able to produce.
Workshop details
Those who haven’t attended a session before are very welcome; no previous experience is necessary. Expert tuition will be given at all stages. Each class will have a maximum of 6 places, to ensure plenty of space for people to work. I will show you fused glass samples of how glass behaves. This will help you when working out what you’d like to make, discovering more about fusing and slumping glass to make different forms. There is a large range of slumping moulds, dishes, soap dishes that you can select from, as well as creating curved upright pieces or hanging pieces. I am happy to support you in creating pieces developed from your own ideas. I will then teach you glass cutting techniques, let you have a practice cutting and then we’ll start making. All materials will be provided. Work will need to be fired in a kiln and can be collected later.
Gift options and pricing
You can buy a workshop session as a gift, you can purchase an e-gift card, which allows the recipient to select their chosen date. Click on the ‘Glass workshop gift voucher’ option to find out more information.
I’ve had to increase my workshop fees which started this April, due to the increase in raw materials and overheads. For those of you who have received an e-gift voucher for last Christmas at the old prices and cannot find the date that you need, contact me and I can book you directly onto the workshop.
I decided this year to run all my workshops on Sundays where possible, as this means that parking is free. I’ve also increased the time for a half-day session to 5.00pm, to allow people time to finish their own individual pieces, after the introduction to glass making at the beginning of the session. If you finish your work by 4.30pm, you’re not obliged to stay until 5pm.
If you’d like to arrange a session with family or friends that doesn’t suit the dates below, contact me and we’ll arrange a date that suits us all.

Ever fancied having a go at glass fusing and didn’t know where to go?
Do you have a friend or family member who you know has always had a creative spark? Buy a e-gift card for a birthday or special occasion, or just to gently support them?
Purchasing a e-gift card enables the recipient to select their preferred date. You can select from a range of prices below and either purchase an e-gift card that is the same amount as a specified class or select from a larger range of prices. If your recipient decides to attend a more expensive session, they can input their code and pay the difference or if a larger amount is selected, they can select more than one session. All cost options for my workshops are listed below.
As explained on my workshop page, my workshop prices will be increased in April. There are still a few places available at the current price. If someone wanted to attend a class later in the year, the e-gift code can be inputted and an additional balance of £9 paid.
You could also splash out with a special 1 to 1 full day (£300.00), or half day (£150.00) with Sue!
A digital confirmation will be emailed to you or to your friend/family member. When they select their chosen date, and get to the payment section, under Order Summary, on the right, they will see a box for ‘Gift Code’. Put in the code and click ‘Apply’. When they then click ‘Purchase’ there will be nothing to pay.
Alternatively, you can buy a card from my shop to enclose the digital card details and send to the happy recipient - available in the shop.
E-cards are valid for 12 months from date of purchase.
In this session you will learn how to create your own unique pieces. Sandblasting is a technique that uses grit sprayed at high pressure to give the glass a frosted effect, like glass found on the beach. A variety of glasses and vases will be provided, but please feel free to bring along something of your own to work on.
Once you have created your design and applied it to the glassware, you will be instructed in how to use the sandblaster in a safe manner. All materials will be provided.
I got this note from Kathryn after the workshop this March, ‘I wanted to thank you for a great afternoon. Thank you for your time and patience and I love my westie vase and glass!’
