"Absolutely loved Dawn’s pick and mix glass fusion taster which had lots of choice. Went with a friend and had such a great time. Dawn explained everything really well before we were let loose, and was on hand to help with questions the whole time. Plenty of materials to choose from and a group of just 6 which was perfect!"

"So glad you had a good time, it was a lovely afternoon sharing my studio with you all - the work the group made is fabulous, its gone in for first firing today, can’t wait to see the results. Thanks again "

David Smith reviewed: Glass Artist's Studio Experience Day - Fusing (Open)

"We received a warm welcome from Dawn who is an easy person to get on with. She is accommodating where possible and has numerous samples and ideas for those of us attending but not knowing what to expect. I am not particularly arty but was able to produce somethings that will hopefully look good once it has been fired. My wife and adult daughter also enjoyed our day and we hope to attend once again to try something else now we are more aware of what is achievable. "

Dawn Turner Designs responded:

"Hi Dave, it was a pleasure to welcome you and your lovely family to the studio, I had a thoroughly enjoyable and amusing day (despite the heat!) I can't wait to see all of your creations when they're fired, and thank you all for embracing the unknown! Dawn "

Denise reviewed: Pick & Mix Glass Fusing Taster Sessions

Stephen reviewed: Glass Artist's Studio Experience Day - Fusing (Open)

"Had a great day. Learnt some new ideas. Dawn is very friendly and knowledgeable. Teaches in an easy to understand way. Would recommend."

Dawn Turner Designs responded:

"Aw, thank you so much Stephen, that's very lovely of you to say. As my classes are usually aimed at total beginners with no experience, it's always slightly unnerving when someone comes to the studio who has already done glass fusing to some degree - so I am extra pleased that you still felt that you learned something, and I've got a tip from you too, I'll be getting me some paint-brushes! "

Dawn Turner Designs responded:

"Thank you Sally, so pleased you enjoyed your day - thank you for embracing the whole process and being willing to give something new a go. I can't wait to see your finished pieces, loved your ideas (I might have to borrow that cat paperweight, lol)"
