Please note - We are fully booked for the remainder of 2024 and are now taking bookings for 2025.
This is a 3 to 4 hour taster course to give you a sample of bead making, ideal if you are unsure if lampwork is for you.
All aspects of bead making for beginners will be covered, tools & equipment, health & safety, types of glass etc followed by demonstration of basic tasks such as pulling stringers and making a basic bead. At the end of the course you will have made a basic bead and have an idea of what you need to start making your own beads. All beads made on the day will be posted to you after they have been annealed in our kiln.
This is one to one teaching rather than a class of students to give you the maximum possible learning time. You can opt to bring a friend, at a discounted rate.
The course can run either morning or afternoon to suit your needs and refreshments will be provided. Weekend dates are available but limited, we will contact you after purchase to book the date.
