Why This Workshop is Special
This workshop is your ideal introduction to the art of hot glass sculpting. Starting with clear glass, you'll master the fundamentals of shaping and working with molten glass. With growing confidence, you'll add your unique touch to craft a vibrant and colourful bird. By the end of your session, you'll have two creations: a clear glass bird to showcase your technique and a colourful masterpiece to highlight your new skills. After the workshop, your creations will cool for 2-3 days before being ready for collection or delivery.*
