Description
An opportunity to create your own beautiful, fused glass lantern in the heart of Warwick. On the day, you will be given all the tools and materials required, including a 29cm tall, galvanised steel lantern, suitable for indoor or outdoor use. By replacing two of its panels with your colourful glass creations, you will produce a unique, one-of-a-kind, functional item that can be used with a candle or a set of sparkly fairy lights. In line with the autumn season, there will be lots of richly coloured, autumn-inspired glass elements to decorate your piece, but if you prefer, you can use any colours you choose to create your panels. There is no glass cutting required in this workshop, making it ideal for beginners as well as more experienced fused glass creators. You are also more than welcome to have a go at cutting techniques during the time available. Following the workshop, your completed panels will be fired in my kiln and placed into your lantern. Completed items will be returned to the venue within 7 days for you to collect. Tea/coffee and biscuits are provided to fuel your creativity!

Maker
Hello, I’m Sue and I have a small business called cielo fused glass designs. For the past five years, I have been selling my own fused glass creations and holding glass fusing workshops in various locations in Warwickshire and the West Midlands. I started my own glass journey in a similar way to you…I attended a taster workshop at the school where I worked, I made a glass suncatcher and I was hooked! I began by making pieces for family and friends and then took the plunge and bought my own kiln! Fast forward to today, and my aim is to support you, at your own pace, to create something beautiful, or fun, or functional, or colourful (and hopefully all of the above!) in glass.
