Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Panad it was very easy, the hardest thing was deciding on a design with a completely blank canvas. You get plain glass which you cut to size and then decorate with various powered or chipped glass in a variety of colours, or metal shapes. It then gets fired in a kiln to fuse it and then to slump it into shape. The possibilities are pretty endless but that was the sort of thing I'd had in mind.

Teen 2 did a really lovely coaster with thin shards of green glass to make seaweed and foil fish, plus a bowl. Teen 1 did a stencilled coaster and a candle sconce with a variety of purple bits in it.

A couple of the pieces have very delicate colours, I think we were a bit light on the powdered colours, but part of the fun is waiting to see how it turns out.

I'd definitely do it again, maybe with much stronger colours.
