Student reviews
Here's what my students say about Groovy Glass...
"I can highly recommend the 2- day Birdbath Workshop. It was such fun and excellent value for money. Over the 2 days I got access to 12 hours worth of coaching and mentoring to fine-tune my existing skills and boost my confidence with grouting. There was access to all the tools in the workshop, including the grinder, glass cutters and nippers - we didn't need to bring or buy any tools. Learning was enhanced with hints and tips from our very experienced and knowledgeable facilitators Rachael and Kylie. Also, a wonderfully wide range of tesserae and glass with an amazing selection of colours".

"I have loved learning about the world of glass. Groovy glass has great teaching in a friendly atmosphere. The small class sizes mean that I have always had support for the trickier processes when I have needed it. Rachael is a very encouraging and friendly teacher. Buying glass and supplies is very reassuring at Groovy Glass. Whenever I shop, I come out with some handy tips and have appreciated the assistance with purchasing glass colours and textures. Much better to actually view the glass finishes than the lucky dip it would be if buying online. It's like a personal shopping experience!"Regina Ginich - Various
"Thanks Rachael and Kylie for another fantastic workshop. I spent two wonderful days creating a mosaic birdbath that looks fab. Not only are they patient and inspiring teachers, but also fill the workshop with fun, laugher, great food and company. Lifted my spirits much more than any visit to a counsellor. I love that I take home a finished product after every workshop. I've done workshops to create a house number, a dragon egg or two and now a birdbath.... Even if you've never imagined doing a mosaics course, I highly recommend you get along to the next one advertised - I can guarantee you'll love it".
