Want to make a fun and funky fused glass sculptural piece for your garden? This Melbourne workshop is for you!
In this class, you will have a quick introduction to the basics of glass fusing. You will then learn how to make your pieces, decide on your design and spend most of your time producing your artwork.
You have the creative freedom to choose to make a butterfly, dragonfly or any creature for your garden, which can be either a two or three dimensional piece.
Please note that if you choose to make a three dimensional sculpture, you do not have to make the body for the animal. However, if you opt for a two dimensional piece, you will have the opportunity to design the body as well, guided by your friendly teacher.
Whatever you decide, these beautiful sculptures look so wonderful in a garden or courtyard, adding a pop of colour to your outdoor space.
Please note:
  • If you would like to schedule your session during weekdays we are very flexible and can accept as little as one booking during a weekday as we have capacity to work with you even if it is one-on-one. You can request to book in at 10am or at 1.30pm weekdays this way for your session.
  • You will need to leave the piece at our studio to be fired. We will assemble them for you. Our turnaround time is two to three weeks.

  • 5/5 from Anne Maree Jones, attended Jul 2025: Merryl was a brilliant teacher. giving space and time to be your creative self… but quick to assist when requested/ needed. Merryl offered excellent instructions to complete cutting and grinding of glass. Merryl was generous in supply of materials and very considerate in allowing time to complete art piece.
