Nicola reviewed: Introduction to copper foiling workshop

"Sharon was fantastic! The course was interesting and fun - just the mindful, hands on activity and fun I needed. Great resources available and a lovely atmosphere in the studios above the Hope mill Theatre in Manchester. Small group of 4 of us and we really enjoyed ourselves. Left with a new found skill I will be keen to carry on. Thanks Sharon, what a fabulous day. your knowledge and enthusiasm for the stained glass copper foiling was infectious. Even ended up with an extra piece I convinced Sharon to sell to me! I'll be a pro soon :) "

Clare reviewed: Introduction to copper foiling workshop

"A very well organised and well explained introduction to the copper foiling technique. We started with health and safety issues, then moved onto basic glass handling and various cutting methods. Then we experimented with cutting and Foiling a small design. During the afternoon we completed a larger piece. I felt that I had achieved something by the end and took home two very nice pieces with me. Sharon was very attentive throughout and quick to give advice. An excellent day!"

Manchester Stained Glass responded:

Fiona reviewed: Introduction to copper foiling workshop

"A really lovely course - warm, friendly and welcoming! Nice relaxed pace but packed with advice, useful info and guidance, Sharon is very supportive and knowledgable. I really liked the format of the day, starting with safety advice and a practice piece, before being able to be creative and make your own piece or use a myriad of design ideas. Very good value for money and a rewarding day, will definitely be visiting again! Thank you!"

Barry reviewed: Introduction to copper foiling workshop

"This is the second course I have taken with the same tutor. So I came to this with a working knowledge of stained glass. But still it was engaging and informative. It started with the basics and at by the end of the session we had completed a nice little sun catcher. It wasn’t prescriptive so we have the option to make something we designed ourselves. It was a great course with a great tutor."

Manchester Stained Glass responded:

"Thank you Barry for such a nice review. I am very glad that you did find it engaging and informative, on top of the stained glass skills you had already learnt. It was great to have you on the workshop Sharon :)"

Marian Abdilla reviewed: Introduction to copper foiling workshop

"This is second course that I attended with Sharon, and it was also planned out in logical way. It was limited to 4 places (all of Sharon’s course are limited to 4 places) so that the students could progress at their own pace, giving them the confidence to complete their final piece. Sharon was always on hand to offer help, support and advice [as well as tea, coffee and biscuits). The structure of the course was well balanced, with a mixture of different age groups. Sharon promotes a friendly and relaxed environment and I would highly recommended this course and the stained glass course which I also attended."

Manchester Stained Glass responded:

"Hi Marian, it was lovely to have you back on another workshop. Thank you for leaving such good review. I am so glad you have enjoyed both workshops with me and wish you lots of fun creating with glass at home. Sharon :)"
