Fused Glass Workshop – Seasonal Decorations
Thurs 17th Oct – 1:30-3:30pm
Price £45 per person
I want to share my 15+ years of experience with you. This in person fused glass workshop is held at my Derbyshire studio and gallery space in the middle of Wirksworth near Matlock.
About this fused glass workshop
I’ve been running variations of this workshop for years! It’s so much fun and so open to personalisation. Over the years we’ve made mini wreaths stars, trees, Santas, robins, penguins, Rudolph and more, all to decorate your tree or give as gifts at Christmas. With this workshop we will aim to make 4 in any design you choose, more can be made if you have time for a small extra cost. All are made with precut glass and simple step by step designs which are left open for personalisation. As always, plenty of options to add sparkles!
Simply complete your design during the session and leave it at the studio for me to fire, clean and finish with a lovely ribbon, ready for you to display and enjoy. We will arrange for you to collect your pieces approx three weeks later or I can post your finished piece at cost.
I will talk through all the Health & Safety in the session but I want you to know now, you will be handling precut glass pieces, they have pointy ends but with the right handling, they won’t hurt you. Recommended for ages 12+, all under 16s to be accompanied by a paying adult.
Photos shown here (and on my facebook page) are previous students makes.
Book with friends or come on your own for a supportive and fun creative fused glass workshop experience. All fused glass workshop attendees receive a 10% discount on purchases from the gallery shop on the day, just a little way I can say thank you for joining me!
Things to bring with you:
- A bottle of water or travel cup of coffee/tea.
- An apron or old clothes so you don’t have to worry about getting glue or other materials on them.
- Pictures or images that inspire you, even if it’s just for colour reference but remember we will be a limited to the effects achievable with the materials and tools though.
- An open mind and willingness to experiment.

Venue: Create Space Studio & Gallery, 27 Market Place, Wirksworth, Matlock DE4 4ET
Currently, the washroom facilities in the studio shop aren’t the best, they probably won’t ever be perfect but I do have a working w.c and sink now, just behind a curtain. I would still recommend considering supporting one of the independent cafés, restaurants and pubs who would welcome some extra business in return for a comfort break.
