This is a fun activity in Bethnal Green. , London

This introductory beginner's glass workshop in London is specially designed for absolute beginners with no prior experience in lampworking glass. It's the ideal activity to learn how to create your own stunning glass flowers without feeling overwhelmed.

Through careful observation and teaching, we have found that starting with the Mini Flower Set is the perfect way to begin. This approach allows you to get hands-on straight away and successfully create beautiful pieces. In this workshop, you will learn how to make mini flowers, which have 3-5 petals that are lightly pressed, or small flowers, where each petal is pressed multiple times for added detail. To ensure a high success rate, each flower is limited to a maximum of 5 petals.

You can choose a workshop duration that suits your schedule:

- 1.5-hour workshop: Create a mini set of 2-3 flowers or a small set of 2 flowers.
- 2-hour workshop: Create a mini set of 3-4 flowers or a small set of 2-3 flowers.
- 3-hour workshop: Create a mini set of 5+ flowers or a small set of 4+ flowers.

For those interested in creating more intricate designs, we recommend joining our Improver Beginner Workshop after this introductory session.

You will leave with a gorgeous collection of your very own handcrafted glass flowers and a wonderful sense of achievement from mastering this mesmerising art form.

Your workshop experience includes:

- Guided instruction – We are with you throughout, starting with a demonstration and staying nearby to help. Sometimes, multiple instructors are available for extra support.
- Packaging – After creating your pieces, we’ll package them beautifully. You can select from thousands of yarns to tie a custom bow.
- Complimentary repair service – If your finished piece sustains damage due to non-human factors, we offer a one-time free repair.

Price includes VAT.

Had a lot of fun! First we had a demonstration and then we made our own. Enjoyed most handling the glass when it was molten and making different shapes and textures. Teacher was very helpful, she helped me assemble all my petals in the end. Wish I had a little more time to make more

Me and my group thoroughly enjoyed this glass! We’ve never done anything like this, so it was a completely new experience for us. All the tutors were so friendly and lovely. Our teacher went through a demonstration with us and then we were left to get crafty. Some people might not like that, but we actually loved that you don’t have someone standing over you. If you need help at any stage, there was always one of the teachers to ask, so that’s why we really liked how it was run. There are so many colours of glass to choose from and lots of flowers already made so you can get inspiration. We picked the 1.5 hour class, but I actually wish we went the next one up because I was having that much fun and really got into it. I would absolutely recommend this class to anyone! We’re already looking to book in for our next class with them. Thanks for having us ◡̈

Lovely learning a new technique to make beautiful flowers. The teachers were very nice and they were approachable. I felt like two hour session wasn't long enough for me so I would like to do the class again.

Had such a fun and exciting time! The teachers were super friendly and patient. It turned out to be trickier than I expected, but I’m actually really proud of what I made! The space was also surprisingly comfortable and cool with a big fan, even though lampworking uses fire and gets quite hot. Highly recommend this class in London--Definitely worth a 5-star experience!

It was great fun. I liked the structure of the time, being shown a demo and then the rest was up to us. I loved that freedom and im super happy with my flowers. She described everything a clear, easy way which made it less intimidating. The time only started from when the demo was over as well which I massively appreciated. And the flowers are GORGEOUS! Id have loved more chance to chat and ask questions about her other work but at the same time I loved making the most of my time in the studio. Thank you so much! My partner and I now have some very pretty glass flowers on display.

We had a great time at the workshop- the staff were friendly and welcoming. We made 1-2 flowers each I'm the 90 minute session. I appreciated that they didn't start counting the time you had until the demo began, and adjusted our groups timing when some had to wait a few minutes for a lamp to become free. You were shown a demo and then left to do it yourself, although you could ask for help at anytime, I think we would have appreciated a bit more help along the way as complete beginners. Would still recommend, and hope to return to try again!
