Craft Your Own Vibrant Glass Bird

Create a Treasured Keepsake

Step into the captivating world of glassmaking with our Glass Bird Workshop. In just 30 minutes, you'll transform molten glass into a beautiful, hand-sculpted bird. Choose from delightful designs like the Robin, Wren or Blue Tit. This hands-on session is perfect for beginners – no prior experience needed! Guided one-on-one by our expert glassmakers, you'll create a keepsake that's sure to delight.

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.*

Dress Code for Glass Crafting:
Closed-Toe Shoes: Essential for foot protection; no sandals or open-toed shoes.
Natural Fibre Clothing: Wear cotton for better heat resistance than synthetic fabrics.
Protective Attire: Long pants (like jeans) and a fitted long-sleeved top are ideal. Avoid flowy outfits or skirts. Short sleeves are acceptable.
Hair Ties: Secure long hair to keep it away from your face and flames.
Minimal Jewellery: Remove accessories that could snag or conduct heat.
Safety Glasses: Provided on-site to protect your eyes.
Following these guidelines ensures a safe and enjoyable experience. Let's create something amazing together!

*Delivery can be arranged at a cost of £8.50 per shipping.
