Classes...

   If you are looking for an original gift for someone (or just a fun day for yourself!),  then why not buy a private lampworking class at the Duck in a Bucket studio? Previous glass making experience is not necessary. See 'Tuition' for more information. 
Contact me for available dates and gift vouchers. 

Above:  Some examples of the sort of bead making techniques you can learn in a beginners class.

   Please contact me to discuss your requirements if you would like me to come and teach a workshop or creativity class at your studio.  I am CRB checked, and I am fully covered by public liability insurance to teach and demonstrate at my studio and any other location.

The classes for 2012 are in full swing... Get yours booked today!
Please note that Monday classes are no longer available.


A little bit about Duck in a Bucket Designs...

   Every piece at Duck in a Bucket Designs is individually handmade by Ema Kelly, so no two will be exactly the same, making each one all the more special.  
   Using hot glass techniques, Ema takes inspiration from her surroundings, the outdoors, and even the glass itself, to create her contemporary ranges of homewear, gifts, and jewellery.  She particularly enjoys crafting works that can be displayed back in the environment of where the idea was first conceived.  Her use of bold colours combined with her simple 'no fuss' forms has made her work striking and desirable to an array of clientele.Her designs sway from quirky to elegant, all the time illustrating the tactile fluidity of the material and the vibrancy of colours available. 

   Visit the online shop to take home your very own Duck in a Bucket Designs treat, have a look where you can go to buy work from her in person, or see if there is a stockist near you.

   Perfect for gifts or just to treat yourself, Ema's glass creations glass are set to inject a splash of colour into anyone's day. 

Thanks for visiting,
