Morning & Afternoon Fused Glass Experiences at our Blended Monkey Studios - December 2025
Updated: Dec 21, 2025
Today's half-day fused glass experiences taught by our fabulous guest tutor, June Massey, were another great success, with each group creating their own unique, beautiful Christmas dishes.
The students learnt how to cut glass and "nibble" it to get the right shapes, and then arrange the pieces on their backgrounds, depicting their own wonderful scenes and imagery.
Our highly skilled fused glass tutor, June, then expertly guided the group through all the stages, and it was great to pop in now and then to take photos and see how everyone was getting on. I just love all the beautiful coloured glass!
As is customary here at Blended Monkey, we kept the group's creativity going by fuelling them with teas, coffees, freshly-baked chocolate brownies (courtesy of Fanoggins Bakery) and also - in keeping with the season - alcoholic-free mulled wine & warm mince pies!
June has now taken the work home with her to fire in her specialist fused glass kiln. The creations will then be brought back to our studios, and students will be able to collect them by arrangement.
The photos here provide a great insight into both of the sessions. If you couldn't get onto this workshop, June is returning to us in 2026 for a wonderfully varied range of fused glass experiences:
