“I attended the copper foiling stained glass course. Will provided thorough and clear instructions, as well as all the materials for me to create a beautiful stained glass panel and the confidence that I could take these skills away and make more at home. Highly recommend course for crafty people, just be warned you’ll need space in your home for more craft stuff once you’ve finished it 😉”
