Stained Glass Makers Workshop: Open Studio Session

Work on your own stained glass projects with access to studio tools, materials and creative space.



1.5 hours Class size 1 to 6 guests       $75 (PayPal Pay in 4 available)

Looking for a dedicated stained glass workspace without the cost and commitment of setting up your own studio?
This self-directed Open Studio Session is designed for stained glass makers who already have experience with copper foiling or leadlighting and are looking for a well-equipped, creative space to work on their own projects.
Whether you're finishing a piece started in a previous class, experimenting with a new design, preparing handmade gifts, or simply carving out time for your creative practice, this session gives you the freedom to create at your own pace in a welcoming studio environment.
Bring your ideas, patterns, and inspiration, and enjoy access to specialist stained glass tools, equipment, and materials while working alongside fellow glass enthusiasts. It's the perfect opportunity to refine your skills, try something new, and connect with a community of makers who share your passion for stained glass.

female Women-owned

Founded by artist Lena in 2023, 3minheat.art celebrates curiosity, creativity and the joy of exploring new ideas through glass art.
The name "3minheat" comes from a phrase Lena often heard growing up, describing her tendency to become intensely interested in something before moving on to the next passion. Years later, following an ADHD diagnosis, she realised that what others saw as inconsistency was actually curiosity, adaptability and a love of learning.
Today, 3minheat.art is a reflection of that journey. It embraces the spark of inspiration, the excitement of discovery and the belief that creativity doesn't have to follow a single path. By transforming a once-critical label into a positive one, Lena created a brand that celebrates individuality, self-acceptance and the courage to follow one's curiosity wherever it leads.
