Event description

Using Soft Glass coloured rods, we will focus on forming circular beads pulling glass stringers straight and twisted, and using these to apply patterns to the surface of the bead, Using smooth and textural designs, let your imagination take over and create your very own designer bead.

Beads you make have to be annealed overnight, so you will have to come back to pick up your work, If you are unable to pick up your work please inform when booking and we can arrange postage of your items. Please wear full shoes, not sandals or open toes for this activity. Also it would be helpful to wear old clothes or bring an apron with youz
