Painted Stained Glass Panel - Three Day Workshop

A three day workshop where you will design and make a beautiful, painted and stained glass panel. Learn how to combine coloured glass, glass paints, lead cames, solder and leaded light cement to create a unique 20cm x 30cm panel to take home.

Day one: Learn how to create a simple design template for your panel and then how to safely cut coloured and textured glass to fit.

Day two: Learn how to mix and apply black and brown stained glass paints. You will start by practising on spare pieces of glass before using these techniques on several of the cut  pieces from your design. These pieces will be fired in the glass kiln overnight making the painted detail permanent on your glass.

Day three: Assemble all of your prepared glass pieces and lead these together to form your unique panel. This will be ready to take home at the end of your workshop.

This workshop is suitable for beginners and improvers, and would be a great follow-on workshop for those who have already done the one day Introduction to Stained Glass workshop.

All materials, light lunches and refreshments are included in the workshop fee.
