🕙 1:1 Stained Glass Tuition 

📍 Castlecomer Craft Yard, Kilkenny, R95 HY7X

Looking for a personal, hands-on experience in stained glass? Book a private workshop for you and a friend / family member / loved one for a unique and memorable day.

During your session, you’ll learn the essential Tiffany-style copper foiling techniques, including glass cutting, foiling, and soldering. Each session is tailored to you, so you can bring your own design to life.

How to book

1. Contact me via the contact form or email me directly at glassandarrow@gmail.com to request a specific date (have 2 in mind)
2. We’ll discuss your ideas beforehand to ensure your chosen design is beginner-friendly. You can choose from any pattern on my website or Etsy patterns are accepted with proof of purchase from the artist.
