Here are some lovely comments from people who have attended our workshops…
“We had a really enjoyable and relaxing day with Trisha, making our creations: she was very supportive in helping us realise the items we wanted to try and create, and was just the right amount of "hands on", demonstrating what we needed to be able to do. She was extremely well resourced, and would also occasionally chip in with ideas, when asked. The items we created were very well received by their recipients. I would highly recommend attending Trisha's workshop.” - HC
“Hi Trisha. I received my glass fusion creations last week. I'm really happy with them. I found the workshop to be a wonderfully mindful experience and you were so helpful. Thank you for a very pleasant afternoon.” - SF
"Thank you Trisha for helping me to enjoy a really creative day sampling Glass Fusing for the first time, I was really delighted with the results of my efforts, and hope to spend another relaxing day with you sometime soon." - L
“My daughter and I were gifted a glass fusing workshop which we both thoroughly enjoyed. We spent a wonderfully relaxing morning in Trisha’s studio, where we were given clear guidance, creative ideas and a vast array of colours to work with. We are delighted with our final glass fusion pieces - trees, waves, flowers and a Christmas tree. I’m now hoping to attend the wet felting workshop at some point!” - S
“The workshop was absolutely fantastic. I had never done anything like this before but Trisha put me at ease right away, teaching me about colours and arrangements and about how to safely and precisely cut the glass to size - it was a wonderful experience! The studio space is beautiful and very comfortable, and Trisha has an abundant variety of colours and styles of glass available to use. It was so much fun! I didn’t anticipate quite how much I would enjoy it; I thought I was visiting for a one-off workshop but am now hoping to make it a regular thing! When fired, the pieces turned out even better than I had imagined. With Trisha’s expert guidance and delightful personality, I believe anyone could make really beautiful glass pieces and thoroughly enjoy the process. Highly recommended!” - K
“We both really enjoyed our wet felting experience at Bolters End Creative and are very pleased with our respective pieces of work. It was good to “switch off” for a few hours and focus on being creative. We’d quite like to do a bigger design at some point.” PM & JT
“Trisha was clearly very knowledgeable and passionate about her craft which resulted in a thoroughly enjoyable evening. This is a great way to spend time with friends.” - H
“Trisha ran a great session for around 10 of us. She provided all the materials and ideas but was also very supportive and flexible, allowing us to try our own ideas out. It was laid back and a thoroughly enjoyable way to spend an evening. I would highly recommend her!” - J
“I had a really good day creating the fused glass design. The crafting is very absorbing and being away from home in a safe space for a time is a greatly valued luxury in these strange times." - S
“The glass fusion workshop at Bolters End was a fun, relaxing and creative space. I was shown how to make some lovely creations in a safe and friendly environment. I will definitely be back to do another workshop.” - K
“Thoroughly enjoyed learning a new craft with Trisha and glass fusion last month! Very well organised. Professional COVID safety checks together with advice on how to safely use and work with glass. I was delighted with my tea lights and coffee mat - I’ll definitely be coming back and look forward to my next creations!” - S
Stamford College: Trisha Nutter from @boltersendcreative came in and worked with 10 of our Level 3 students to produce some amazing fused glass pieces. Here are some student testimonials:
“It was a very interesting experience that allowed me to get hands-on and try a new artistic technique. I can add this to my project and broaden my horizons.”
“It taught me a new skill that I really enjoyed and I will be able to incorporate it within future projects.”
“I have learnt a completely new skill and used materials that I had never used before. I am excited to see how the final product has turned out.”
