Stained Glass WorkshopsHave you ever wanted to create your own stained glass piece?Ruth runs workshops teaching the skills of stained glass where you can create your own small copper foiled stained glass creation or unique sun-catcher which you can take home with you at the end of the day. Ruth strongly believes in an holistic approach to health and well being and that expressing our creativity is an important part of a balanced and healthy life. Prior to the workshop we will work together to design your glass piece so your pattern is ready to be brought to life on the day.All workshops include materials, tea and coffee, free on road parking. For the day workshop we recommend you bring a packed lunch with you although shops and takeaways are nearby in the very quiet and idyllic village of Rottingdean, just outside Brighton. Please wear comfortable clothing with flat covered footwear. Due to the materials used, this course is not suitable for pregnant and lactating mothers.Please note: when booking a workshop we ask that a minimum deposit of £50* be paid to cover the costs of designing your glass piece and materials brought in preparation for day, thank you.
