Introduction to Copper Foil Stained Glass Workshop

Learn to create a stained glass artwork using the copper foil method!



3.5 hours Class size 1 to 4 guests    

  $160 (Afterpay & PayPal Pay in 4 available)

Looking for something a little different to do on a Friday night? Join us from 5:30-9pm for a stained glass art workshop and learn traditional copper foil techniques with glass artist and community arts facilitator, Fiona Caskie (AKA My Imaginary Heart).
The copper foil technique makes for a gentle introduction to glass art and allows you to explore a variety of shapes and colours using delicate pieces to make smaller-scale stained glass artworks like suncatchers and wall hangings.
This workshop is limited to a small group for individualised attention and focused learning. Patterns are provided, and you will create a small finished suncatcher that you can take home to enjoy. Larger panels can be completed by booking multiple sessions.
Designed for complete beginners (advanced learners and refreshers welcome), you will learn how to:
  • Cut glass using three different tools
  • Grind and shape glass to a pattern
  • Apply copper foil to glass
  • Construct your project using soldering tools
  • Use finishing techniques to polish and display your item
Please note: Glaas Inc advises that stained glass work is not recommended for those pregnant/breastfeeding and we encourage potential students to seek further advice from their GP before participating.

Please note: Public dates for this class require at least 2 guests to run. In the unlikely event that we don't reach this number, we'll cancel the class; in this case we'll inform you and allow you to get a refund or reschedule, so please watch your email/SMS one day prior to the class.
What you'll get
  • Skills in the traditional art of copper foil stained glass.
  • Materials, use of equipment, and protective equipment are provided.
  • You will complete a small suncatcher or panel to take home.
