Level 1 online course • 20-page PDF • 30-minute video • £19.95
Learn my flat-bed kiln method for creating fused glass murrine and discover how you can make your own colourful, patterned glass designs.
I've developed and refined this technique through years of experimenting with kiln-formed glass, and I'm now sharing the process in this Level 1 online murrine course.
You'll learn a variety of techniques for creating stripes, colourful patterns, flowers, bees, ladybirds and more — giving you the skills to experiment with your own designs.
No previous experience making murrine is required.
One of the lovely things about this technique is that you can create delicate as well as larger, chunkier murrine.
Some techniques can produce murrine approximately 3mm in diameter, as shown in the example below, while other techniques allow you to create larger designs.
The course gives you the basic techniques and knowledge to experiment with different patterns, colours and sizes.
