This course involves the use of lead and is not suitable for pregnant women, anyone who might be pregnant or nursing mothers.

Further Detail
Start with some basic cutting practise before choosing a design from a selection provided by the tutor. Work with a range of semi opaque glasses to cut the panel. We will use zinc which is reinforced with a steel bar to frame the piece which can then be placed into the garden border between your planting. There will be demonstrations of each technique and individual guidance.
