Stained glass workshops

Let yourself be enchanted by glass! Take on the challenge of cutting glass and bending lead according to your own creation during a stained glass workshop. At the end of the day, you will go home proud with your own stained glass window. What will you learn during the stained glass workshop? During the workshop, you will be guided by Charlotte from A to Z in creating your own stained glass window. Each group consists of a maximum of 6 people. This guarantees you good, individual guidance. This way, every participant learns the basic principles of stained glass step by step. The workshop starts at 9 a.m. and lasts until 5 p.m., and may run until 5:30 p.m. at the latest. • Step 1: Designing a stained glass window, starting from your own idea. No inspiration? Take a look at the World Wide Web or on Atelier Forrier's social media. Bring some examples. Throughout the day, we will remove what doesn't fit. Your piece will be A4 size (21cm wide x 30cm high). Note: if you have no experience with cutting glass and/or lead, try to keep it simple. (Maximum 10 glass pieces. Circles are for advanced students.) • Step 2: Choosing the glass, starting from the various textures and colors. • Step 3: Cutting the glass to size using templates. • Step 4: Learning to handle lead and assembling your stained glass window. • Step 5: Soldering the lead and polishing your finished stained glass window. It will be a well-filled day, full of creativity, perseverance, and wonder! Please note: if you are pregnant and/or breastfeeding, it is strongly discouraged to take a stained glass workshop. Minimum age: 12 years.
