Using glass pieces and glass paints to create designs with on to the glass.

We used these and other examples to give the participants a taste of the kind of work they could make during the workshop.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Before we started the glass was set out for people to look at and work with the microwave oven ‘Hot Pot’
