  • Kiln firings, including kiln paper
  • Use of our studio equipment

After you've worked your magic your heart will be put in a box frame all ready for you to hang on your wall when you collect it (about 14 days) after the workshop has finished.

  • 5/5 from Zoe Dixon, attended May 2026: Great class! It was our first exposure to cold glass art and we loved it. Easy to follow and very fun. Jenie is engaging and had good banter too. Lots of opportunity to just go with what you feel like doing design wise. Great environment (real artist studio in Richmond) Cant wait to do another class with her!
  • 5/5 from Liv Cody, attended May 2026: Absolutely loved attending this class and learning from Jenie. Time went by so fast and enjoyed every moment of it!
  • 5/5 from Elizabeth Coffey, attended Jul 2025: The Art Glass Class for Beginners was really great and enjoyable. Jenie our teacher was fabulous, she gave us lots of options of colours and glass to use, taught us how to use the tools and what to do, even put on our favourite music to work too and was there to help when we wanted it. Can't wait to see our hearts framed, once they have been fired and framed. Thank you Jenie we loved your workshop and would recommend others to do it.
  • 5/5 from Julie Chetcuti, attended Mar 2024: Loved it Jenie is a great teacher and has a lovely studio setup. So informative and fun
  • 5/5 from Jean Blundell-Caulfield, attended Aug 2023: Really enjoyed the class. Jenie's training and delivery were excellent. Very relaxed session and Jenie's kind knowledge sharing was more than we expected. We'll be back for another one before the end of the year.
  • 5/5 from Anita Galli, attended May 2023: Jenie was so welcoming and explained everything so well. It was interesting to hear about the properties of glass and then make something so quickly. The studio was easy to find and a nice space to be in.
  • 5/5 from Fiona Moloney, attended Dec 2022: Had another great class with Jenie we had a lot of fun. Jenie always gives the class a great vibe. She gives lots of help if you need it. Can’t wait to do another class. See you soon Jenie.
  • 5/5 from Annette Redpath, attended Nov 2022: I loved my first class in glass fusing. I have already gone back for another workshop with Jenie. Lots of fun and parking is great
  • 5/5 from Marlene Townsend-Booth, attended Sep 2022: Jenie is a fabulous teacher who instantly puts you at ease and is very good at communicating the theory behind glass fusing. It was a pleasure to have my first class done and dusted with a variety of colours and objects to choose from. Photo is before kiln process.
  • 5/5 from Michelle Fielden, attended Sep 2022: It was a fantastic class both fun and educational. Jenie detailed the type of glass we were working with and how it would be fired once we were finished. We got to try cutting glass before we cut the real colours we wanted and believe me there is nothing more therapeutic then cutting and breaking glass. I can’t wait to see how my glass heart turns out. I definitely recommend this class to everyone:)
  • 5/5 from Kimberley Hintner, attended Mar 2022: I absolutely loved the ​Art Glass Class for Beginners: Make a Heart​ with Jenie. It was a very relaxed atmosphere & fun class. ​Jenie is a wonderful teacher, showing you exactly what & how you do everything step by step, & if you forget something, not a problem she is right there to guide you. Everything you need is laid out for you to use, & every color of the rainbow Jenie has it in glass for you to use. Jenie has lots of knowledge that she shared with us, she is very passionate about what she does. The venue was great & the parking was easy. Wonderful time spent learning a new hobby, I must book another class.​ Highly recommended.
  • 5/5 from Mary McKenzie, attended Feb 2022: Easy to find, Jenie was delightful and very helpful. Jenie gave me a run down of all the types of glass to use. My heart turned out fantastically and I couldn’t be happier. Highly recommended
