Discover the beautiful art of traditional leaded stained glass with a creative full-day workshop in Cambridge, Bedford or Northampton. Perfect for beginners and budding artists, this hands-on experience gives you the chance to design and make your own colourful panel to take home. This voucher is valid for a full-day session, hosted by Will, a talented glass artist with a relaxed, friendly teaching style. He's patient, encouraging and great at helping beginners feel confident, so no previous experience is needed. You will get stuck in almost straight away! After a quick introduction and a few practice cuts, you will learn how to shape coloured glass using straight and curved cuts to create your own design. Will will then show you how to assemble your pieces using traditional lead cames, bringing your creation to life. Next, you will try your hand at soldering and learn a few finishing techniques to complete your panel. The best part? Holding your finished piece up to the light and watching those beautiful colours shine through! Your creation is yours to keep, whether you hang it in a sunny window, display it in your conservatory or find a special spot in the garden. With locations at Yardley Hastings Arts Centre, Ravensden Village Hall or a community centre near Cambridge, this full-day experience is a wonderful way to learn a traditional craft and make something unique. It's also a thoughtful gift for anyone who loves getting creative!
