Mad Bert's Contemporary Stained Glass & Courses

Unique and Personal

This photo shows a family window made by June for her own family in 2006. It is a treasured piece and records details of family members including the dog. The window is made using a range of techniques including lead came, kiln work and glass painting.

Commission a window or a hanging panel to celebrate your family. Alternatively have a hand, foot or paw print reproduced in glass and presented in a beautiful Baroque glass frame.

Price for a single print piece is £35 and for a double £45. Choose black, blue, teal, white or cinamon coloured frames.

Stained Glass Courses

In October 2006, June opened her light and friendly teaching studio in Kingsteignton. Beginners and improvers are welcome and numbers are limited to six.

The workshops offer the chance to learn in small, friendly groups in a light purpose-built studio.

Topics taught include copper foil, traditional lead came, etching and 3D stained glass. Thursday sessions are all open studio workshops. Saturday workshops are all open studio but some also have an optional focus for learning. (See details below... Cash or cheque payable to J Carnell.)

Tools for your own use are provided but please feel free to use your own if you have them.
