Christmas light catchers
By Jason leggettI was fortunate enough to attend the stained glass Christmas decoration course on the 8th December. This was my first chance to experience copper foiling and i found the course brilliant as well as very good fun. The tutor was so lovely and made all the students feel very relaxed and we all produced some wonderful Christmas themed light catchers. I have now bought some copper foil to enable me to make some more light catchers as gifts and for my own home. This is not the first course i have done at creative and it certainly wont be the last. I would recommend all the courses to others as they have given me a new hobby that i love and continue to learn new things from.
Many Thanks Creative glass
