Event Description

Fused Glass Bowl Workshop

We are pleased to welcoming our fabulous tutor Katherine back to the estate and this time you have the chance to make your own beautiful glass fused bowl or dish. Working in our Craft barn you will be warm and snug, spend time relaxing and embracing something new, all in the beautiful surroundings of Nottinghamshires finest vineyard.

The workshop will introduce you to a variety of techniques and skills, learning to cut the glass and design your bowl. Katherine will guide you through each process step by step, giving you the opportunity to get hands-on with your glass creation.

Size of dish – depending on which shape you make your dish sizes will be approximately 20 x 15cam or 12cm in diameter, or make 2 smaller bowls.

For inspiration and ideas see our Facebook Photo Album
