In this beginner's workshop, you will learn how to create a beautiful stained glass suncatcher using the copper foil technique. No prior experience is necessary, so if you've never heard of copper foiling before, this class is designed to teach you everything you need to know.
You'll start by choosing your pattern from a choice of 5 options (hummingbird, honeycomb, flower, jellyfish, feather) then next you will be learning the basic skills of copper foiling, from cutting and shaping glass to applying copper foil, and soldering. You'll then put your newfound skills to the test as you create your very own stained glass masterpiece to take home.
During the class, we'll provide all the materials you need, including various colours and textures of glass, copper foil, and soldering tools. Your teacher will make sure you feel comfortable and confident throughout the experience. This class is rich with all the skills you need if you would like to make stained glass again at home!
Not only will this class teach you a new and exciting skill, but as you immerse yourself in the creative process, you may find a sense of mindfulness and renewed energy and inspiration. Plus, at the end of the workshop, you'll have a stunning piece of stained glass art to proudly display in your home or give as a unique gift.
Get ready to unleash your creativity in this stained glass suncatcher class!

It is often requested that people create their own patterns. This is an intermediate to advanced skill and is ok for those who have previous stained-glass experience, however for absolute beginners it is recommended to select from the provided templates.

  • 5/5 from Valeriia Zhelavskaia, attended Sep 2026: Great master class, a lot of options for the stained glass sun catchers. We really enjoyed it!
  • 5/5 from Temesha Agnew, attended Sep 2026: Had an amazing time, completely beginner friendly and was able to home my finished piece
  • 5/5 from Kristee Page, attended Sep 2026: The best class ever. It was paced really well set up was excellent with enough tools and equipment for everyone. Would highly recommend to anyone wanting to try a new hobby.
  • 5/5 from Dianne Martyn, attended Apr 2024: Something new to try. Very enjoyable. Look forward to hosting this skill to others in Blackwater in the future. Thanks Michelle.
  • 4/5 from Lorraine McCarthy, attended Apr 2024: I felt like having a challenge - doing something that I had never attempted before, so joined the copper foiling class. Michelle was very friendly and the class notes emailed to us after the class are very helpful. Can't say I am an expert at cutting glass and soldering (hubby said the soldering wasn't too bad considering it was my first attempt - maybe he was being kind), but I learnt enough to to be confident in giving it a go at home. Just need to get the tools together (list given on class notes) and practice. Lorraine
