"I had a fantastic day with Mandy, the course was so hands on which I loved. I have long wanted to try copper foil stained glass but never had the chance. This course provided everything I expected and more. I highly recommend this course with Mandy as she is an excellent teacher, thank you for an amazing day."

As a beginner she was very patient and assisted me whilst being very encouraging. I managed to come away with a beautiful kingfisher and robin that I am so proud of."

"A really enjoyable day!! Amanda was extremely patient and with her help I managed to make two lovely pieces to bring home - much better than I thought I could achieve on my first attempt. She is a really good teacher - seems to know when to let you have a go by yourself and just when to step in with a bit of guidance. Thank you!"

"Good fun day for our party of three. Amanda was very accommodating and is a very talented and patient tutor. This course is very hands on from glass selection through to cutting, grinding and soldering the pieces. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend this course."

"What a lovely day we had! This was a birthday gift from my daughters, it was a great day! We were made very welcome, had lots of choices to choose from when it came to making items. I went home with a blue tit and a hen, both turned out well thanks to the excellent tuition. I felt the day was good value and would highly recommend it, even to non-crafters!!"

"I have just spent a fantastic day on a one to one with Amanda at her lovely home/studio. The sun was shining and the birds were singing all day. I learned how to cut class, chose different textured glass for the item I was going to make and how it would blend with other colours and textures. I had a go at grinding the glass to make it smooth, then I learned to attach the copper foil before soldering all pieces together. Amanda has much patience and helps when required. I came away with 3 pieces: a heart, bunny rabbit and a dragonfly. I took with me a broken butterfly of glass art I had bought in Canada in 1990 and Amanda very kindly repaired it. Amanda provided soup and warm baguette for lunch and drinks throughout our day, which started at 9am and finished at 5pm. Would I recommend? MOST CERTAINLY"

"I thoroughly enjoyed my day spent with Amanda. She was very helpful and a great teacher. Amanda was clear with her instructions and with having a one to one session she had time to explain all the processes involved in making my two pieces. She was very encouraging and I felt at ease trying to make something new. I was very pleased with the end results and my glass panel and heart are now proudly hanging in my windows. I would thoroughly recommend this workshop."

"A fantastic day with a very gifted artist and teacher very patient, explained each step concisely and thoroughly. I have been on other glass courses and this was by far the best and most informative. Made to feel very welcome, not only great experience of learning Amanda was great company. Would definitely recommend and will be going back."

"Amanda is a patient and pleasant teacher. I managed to make a lovely glass heart and a dragonfly within the day, with plenty of tea and a tasty lunch provided. Not done anything like this before? You have nothing to fear. Loved the learning, and the resulting items have been much admired. Thanks, Amanda"

"We had a really lovely day with Amanda. She is very friendly and made the day really enjoyable. It was great to try something new and leave with a delightful blue tit. She was patient and a perfectionist so we had all the time needed to take us through each stage of the process. She showed us the variety of glass available and we could choose what we wanted to make from a selection of templates. When we saw the Xmas decorations she is making we have booked another workshop in October to have another go!!"

"Just back from a lovely day spent with Amanda. A very patient and methodical teacher. I leant lots of new skills and felt confident very quickly with Amanda's encouragement (plus copious amounts of tea were supplied!). Successfully made a beautiful glass robin. Excellent day!"
