In the lead up to the class Jenie was great communicating with us and answering our myriad of questions. The workshop was so much fun, relaxed, enjoyable and Jenie was a great teacher. Jenie made us feel so welcome, we got to see works from other artists and Jenie gave excellent guidance on the day and created a lovely laid back, creative and enjoyable environment. Would definitely recommend.

I am Jenie and I am a glass artist, business owner and teacher based in Richmond, Melbourne. My passion is to focus on handmade small batch glass and alcohol ink events for glass lovers and learners.
I have a passion for teaching and making. I'm a very social person and I love meeting new people, teaching others how to create fabulous pieces of glass art and explore alcohol ink, hosting events and collaborating with other businesses in fun and creative ways.
I hope that I can teach you to make something beautiful. You don't need any expertise. Most of my classes are designed for the absolute beginner. You'll love being here. Its relaxing and fun being in this amazing space.
You can create all sorts of things in my studio, from bespoke handmade glass plates, to giant Mondrian wall clocks, or abstract wall art!
We run workshops for all ages. Come with your family and friends and create memories together.
This is the place for making gifts with love. Of course, you'll be able to say, no-one else, anywhere, has one quite like it. You can say "I made this!"
Come and play!
