Fused Glass Festive Tealight Holder Workshop

Led by glass fuser Claire Myers, participants create a 12cm fused glass tealight holder designed in the style of a Christmas fireplace. The process involves arranging crushed glass frit, shaped glass pieces, and murrine onto bullseye glass without any cutting or grinding. A clear section allows candlelight to mimic flickering fireplace flames. Finished pieces are fired, finished with a matching ribbon, and made available for collection approximately one week later.

Tips & Advice

  • Allow roughly 1.5 hours for the workshop; some participants finish earlier, while the session allows time for a relaxed pace.
  • No previous experience is needed, and the process involves no cutting or grinding, so you can take part without glassmaking skills.
  • Leave materials at home: all materials and equipment are included in the £50 workshop fee.
  • Plan to collect your fired holder from The Craft House about a week later; it will not be ready to take home after the session.
  • Check that every participant is aged 18 or older, as the class is restricted to adults.
