Stained Glass Workshop - Half Day Taster

It’s a rare opportunity to be able to create a stained glass piece and design of our own choice, something that we will want to hang up at home after our workshop together. Even if you consider yourself ‘not creative or artistic’, we’ll make something wonderful!

A lovely afternoon in an idyllic creative paradise - Had a wonderful afternoon with a friend at the Blue Skies glass studio learning how to make stained glass. We chose a sunset design and Ruth explained clearly how it works and was so friendly and helpful throughout. We overran a bit but it was no trouble, we weren't rushed at all. We both thoroughly enjoyed our afternoon and will definitely be back again. I highly recommend these workshops if you want to try something a bit different. So much fun and we were both so chuffed with the final results!

Fantastic experience! - Bought the taster experience as a Christmas present for my Dad, and paid for myself to join him. We both had an amazing morning and thoroughly enjoyed ever part of it. Ruth was so welcoming and explained every part of the process, making sure we were comfortable with what we were doing. Ruth has created a calm but fun environment and we were so pleased with our creations. Parking was great and we made a day of it by walking across Beacon hill into Rottingdean for lunch (only 20min walk from the studio). Would highly recommend this experience!

What a taster this was - loved it. - Always having been fascinated by stained glass I couldn’t believe my luck when I saw this opportunity in Rottingdean on a family trip away. We had such a fun afternoon, it was a joy to be creative together and the workshop was led beautifully by Ruth. She is genuinely an amazing teacher. We were seamlessly guided through every process and all absolutely chuffed with our glass works when we left. It’s a magical experience and amazing value for money. All I can say is do it!

Would do again in a heartbeat - Having never done anything like this before I was a little apprehensive heading in and I’m not usually confident at the best of times but Ruth was welcoming from the off and made me feel comfortable straight away. She had already worked on some designs following an email conversation we had had and I was very happy with what she had created for me. She showed me the tools and the different glass options and we got to work. She was attentive but allowed me to explore the process myself and was helpful when I needed it. I cannot recommend this experience enough. I had a great morning and came away with a piece of art that I’m so proud to say I made. Thanks Ruth, it was great to meet you.
