What's on





Celebrate the season of love with a wonderfully creative workshop where you’ll design and make your very own fused glass pieces, perfect as heartfelt Valentine gifts … or as something special to keep just for you!
Join us for a joyful session filled with colour, sparkle and imagination as Trisha guides you through the magic of fused glass. You can make two beautiful pieces such as decorative hangers, tealight holders or small free-standing curves. Think hearts, weddings, romance — or whatever love-themed idea inspires you!
You’ll get hands-on with frit, cabochons and all the gorgeous glass details that bring your designs to life. Feeling adventurous? You can even try cutting your own glass with Trisha’s expert support. It’s a fascinating medium, endlessly enjoyable and wonderfully addictive!
Your creations will be taken away, fired and ready in time for Valentine’s Day … the perfect handmade surprise.
If you catch the fused-glass bug (and most people do!), you’re welcome to make extra pieces on the day if time allows, just bring a few pennies for additional glass.
Come, play, experiment, and fall in love with glassmaking this Valentine’s! 💘
Anticipation to enjoy the whole experience!
Specific to this workshop:
No experience is necessary. It requires a steady hand to glue small places of glass in place. Using the cutting tool is a bit like holding a pencil, with just a little more downwards pressure. It is much easier than you think!
This is a relaxed afternoon running from 1.30pm to 4pm.
Our purple front door will be open from 1pm so we can welcome you in, you can get to meet Trisha and your fellow crafters and grab a cuppa before you start.
To ensure the quality of your personal experience, the group size is limited to 10.
£40 + 86p card fee … a reduced rate to embrace 2026! This includes all the materials needed to make your heart inspired glass, drinks and home-made biscuits during the afternoon (excluding lunch)
