Glass Fusing
Merryl’s Mosaics is open to the public to come and make a one-off fused glass piece. No experience is necessary. Just book in, and come and have a fun and creative experience making a fused glass art piece. Great as a casual session, a Party, a Hen's Party, or a Corporate Team Building Event.
Learn the skills of fusing and slumping glass and create a beautiful piece, using skills you will learn at this fun and unique workshop in Melbourne.
Usually, glass art is a complex and expensive activity but at Merryl's Mosaics we have come up with design techniques that are simple, fun and affordable and produce beautiful results.
In this 3 hour workshop, you will learn the basics of glass fusing and then have an opportunity to make some fused glass pieces of art. Fusing glass is when you take a base piece of glass, put a glass design of your choice on it, and then fire the two layers of glass into one piece. The firing takes place in a kiln which is like an oven for glass, setting different temperatures for different outcomes. For example, the glass can be fired smooth or textured. You can also choose to full fuse your piece into a flat piece, or slump the glass into a dish. You will only handle cold glass.
During the workshop you will learn to cut glass; make some simple designs which will be fired so that you can see the effect of different techniques, and then concentrate on making your own unique piece. Initially we were offering a one-price workshop where you make a flat piece approx. 17 x 17cm or a rectangle using similar amount of glass, or make a dish or candle holder of similar size. Due to popular demand, we are now offering a medium size option and a large size option, see pricing below. If you aren't sure you can upgrade on the day. The end result is quite spectacular and delegates are wanting to make bigger and better! At the end of this creative workshop, the pieces will be left at Merryl’s Mosaics for firing and can be picked up about 10 days later.
Glass fusing is a calming and mindful experience. This, together with being creative, social, and relaxing, makes it a unique experience where you will enjoy the moment while learning a new skill and producing something beautiful.
Come and give it a go. Your will love it! And you will be astounded by the results.
