Fun day, here’s some of the items you made!

We had a wonderful day of glass making with a group of lovely people from Wiley Publishing Company last Thursday. We enjoyed the day hugely and lots of coasters, hangings and dishes were made.

The level of creativity was high with new takes on landscapes as well as, for the first time on one of our courses, a lighthouse and a ladybird – see how well these have turned out below. Everyone had a go at breaking glass with bare hands (much much easier than it sounds) and there was lots of laughter during the day along with lemon meringue pie. We look forward to greeting the next group of people from Wiley in 2 weeks and hope you enjoy looking at these photos of some of the work made. Click on the thumbnails for bigger pictures.

Works funday, 21st Aug

We had such fun yesterday hosting one of three recreation days for a large local publisher. You were all so lovely to work with and here are some pictures of the kilns ready to fire last night – currently I’m in the studio in about 40 degrees as they are cooling; currently around 500 degrees in each!

Fused Glass Hen Party 6th April

Well, we had a ball today! Katy came with five friends for her hen party and it was great. You were a delight to work with ladies and we wish you Katy, every happiness for the future. Meanwhile here are your quick fire results as well as a picture of the big kiln, full loaded, just before we set it going.
