Fused Glass Christmas Lantern Workshop
Sunday 22 September 2024 - Knaresborough
Available spaces
Decorate your own Christmas lantern with fused glass panels in just one day! This one-day workshop will introduce you to the basics of glass tack fusing and you'll make your own coloured six-panel lantern. The workshop begins with a discussion of the concept of glass fusing (sometimes called contour fusing), discussing common issues and a review of the materials you'll use. You may like to come up with some basic design ideas, or we can help you on the day. There'll be a wide range of glass frit, glass noodles and other elements for you to create your lantern glass panels from. You'll be creating 6 decorated glass panels to replace the plain glass supplied with the lantern. The glass panels will be fused as a single layer of fusible glass at around 750 deg.C, retaining the texture of the frit and other glass materials you use to make your design. Your lantern will be suitable for use with a tealight or battery-operated nightlight or fairy lights. Tack fusing is fast becoming a popular art form and this class will give you an inspiring introduction to the exciting world of fused glass! Whether you're a complete beginner or looking to try something new, this workshop offers a fun and artistic experience that will leave you inspired by the possibilities of glass. All materials are provided, and your finished creations will be taken away and fired. Firing will take place after the workshop, and is normally completed within two weeks but we will let you know when you can collect your finished piece. Alternatively, we can post your lantern to your home address. There will be an additional cost of £8.95 to cover postage and packaging which can be paid on the day of your workshop. Children over 12 years old may attend this workshop if accompanied by a paying adult. Saturday 25 October 2025 10am - 12pm with ??
