Rp Stainedglass Reviews 18

Really lovely way to spend an hour or so. Richard was very patient, & good at explaining and demonstrating the new skills we needed to make our ‘quirky birds’. Overall a very enjoyable experience! Thanks Richard!

I attended the 5 hour, copperfoil stained glass class as a complete beginner.
Just want to say that I thoroughly enjoyed it and Richard was a friendly, patient and helpful teacher.
I was happy with the 'Siamese Cat' that I made :) Even though I forgot to make a couple of cuts, it turned out better than I expected. Would definitely take another class if the opportunity arises and wouldn't hesitate in recommending Richards classes to others out there, that are interesting in trying something different.
It's given me the confidence and knowledge to take this on as a hobby, when my finances allow.
Thanks Richard :)

I booked a taster workshop as a surprise for my mums birthday, neither of had done anything like this before and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Richard was friendly, helpful and knowledgable and I would absolutely recommend RP stained glass for workshops.

We attended a scrappy bird session, it was something as a family we’ve never done before and we all loved creating our own pieces. Richard was brilliant in guiding us through all the steps. I would highly recommend this experience. Thank you Richard 👍

Love every minute of these workshops. I have done 3, one all day and 2 shorter ones. Brilliant experience! Great way to spend an afternoon learning new skills. I absolutely love what I have made and friends seem really impressed which just goes to show how talented Richard is as a teacher.

I did the 5 hour introduction to stained glass (copper foil method). I can't overstate how much I enjoyed the class and how proud I am of what I made.

The class was well paced and covered variety of skills and techniques - everything you need to make a 6 to 8 (ish) piece stained glass project. There was a lot to fit into the time we had but we didn't feel rushed at any point.
Richard is an excellent teacher who makes sure each student gets the most out if their class. He is very friendly and made me feel at ease.

I would 100% recommend this course - I'm so pleased and surprised that as a complete begginer I got to make and take home a beautiful stained glass piece that is now in pride of place in my kitchen window!

Definitely want to come back and am already looking for project ideas!

I thoroughly enjoyed my day making a stained glass copper foil hanger. Richard was warm and welcoming and a great teacher. He explained everything well, there was no pressure and plenty of time for everything. And I left with a great piece that I will be proud to hang in my home. I will be back to try the lead course next.

Highly recommended.

What a great experience. The introduction course is an eye opener into a really interesting and rarely mention trade. Richard is a great instructor who takes the time with his students and explains everything so clearly that it isn't daunting and is a very enjoyable experience.

Richard is a friend of mine and he told me about his workshops for Stained Glass. Having never tried anything like this before, I was interested in doing something different. I did the 5 hour Introduction to Copper Foil class. Three learners were in attendance, me and another couple. We had a great time. I created a love heart for my wife, being the romantic I am, and the other couple created a lighthouse and a penguin.
We all left feeling tired but exhilarated by what we had achieved. Richard's teaching is calm, relaxed and friendly. The experience was professional and fun. I will be going back to experience more and develop my skills. Warning, creating stained glass art is highly addictive.

I had an old piece of stained glass which I wanted renovated and a missing fan light above my door.
Richard noticed I am a Star Trek fan and suggested something to signify that. He showed me some sketches of his design and made me a beautiful and amazing window in which he included the old pieces of glass from my original piece.
I can recommend Richard as an artist and perfectionist. He went out over and above to make sure my window was perfect.he is a master of his craft.

I did the Christmas Angel workshop mid December last year and it was a really great experience and way to get into the festive spirit and we came away with a lovely tree decoration to bring out each year.

I'll definitely be booking in again for another Angel but also looking at workshops Richard does other times during the year.

Luckily for me, Richard is very patient so if you aren't an expert with glass, like me, you will still come away with something lovely.

I can certainly recommend this.

Great few hours learning about stained glass - very lovely and patient teacher x

Excellent experience — I’ve been twice now with my daughter and both sessions were fantastic. We did the 1-hour intro and the 5-hour intro, and both were really enjoyable. It’s a great gift idea and such a lovely way to unwind while learning something new. Richard talks you through everything step by step, helps whenever needed, and always offers encouragement. We’ll definitely be signing up for more!

Had a great day today doing copper foil work. Will definitely rebook to try lead work next. Great teacher, wide range of materials and designs to choose from. Highly recommend

Having had some experience of leaded stained glass, I wanted to learn the different techniques required for copper foil. After an initial introductory one hour course making a Christmas tree ornament and building on my previous experience, I was able to drop into Richard’s workshop on an hourly basis and make some panels for a lantern. Richard was very flexible, provided a comfortable bench space and equipment to work with and was on hand to guide me whenever I needed advice.
I would highly recommend Richard as a professional who is very knowledgeable and practices the highest standards in his studio.

Richard made intricate and personalised ornaments for our windows. His attention to detail and friendly, professional approach made it a delight to do business with him. Highly recommended!

Richard is excellent at what he does. I needed a repair to a sentimental piece of stained glass but no one would take the job. That was until I got in touch with Richard.
He was brave enough to accept the challenge, talented enough to do an excellent job and kind enough to not charge excessive prices.

Thank you so much Richard. I would recommend you 100%

Richard carefully undertook the delicate restoration of a 1930's front door window to it's original former glory!
He is an absolute professional who prides himself producing/restoring stained glass to an extremely high standard.
His craft speaks for itself and his attention to detail is unquestionable.
I have had a positive and enjoyable experience working with Richard and would not hesitate in recommending his expertise to others.
