Come along to this special extended festive edition of the Christmas Paperweights Workshop at the lovely Fittie Community Hall!
Designed for complete beginners, and those who have done a little fused glass before, during this class you will be taken through the steps to create a multi layered Christmas themed glass paperweight, or set of Christmas decorations!   You will be led step by step through the process, including glass cutting, designing, filling your circle or star shaped mould, and decorating your glass with colourful Sheet Glass, Frits and Stringers.
Festive music, complimentary mulled wine (or non alcoholic alternative) and mince pies will be served, over the course of this 3 hour session, giving you more time to relax and enjoy! 
 
During this class you can choose to make one larger Paperweight (15cm diameter) two smaller, (10cm diameter) a selection of smaller paperweights (which make for perfect stocking fillers!) or a set of Christmas decorations (around 6 depending on size) 
 Some technical information will be provided so you understand the process, but this is definitely still a fun and informal class!
 
Items will be fused in a kiln then returned by post/pick up arranged 1 week after class, so you'll get them well in time for Christmas 🎄 Course fee includes postage. Tea/coffee/festive treats will be served
 
Age 16 and up
 
Course Fee includes all instruction, materials, postage and refreshments!
 
Please note that no tickets are posted out, your name will be on the list :)
