Shop Drop

We have decided to take a step back from craft fairs to focus on a number of commissions. So for the time being items will be available on our Etsy shop where we have just uploaded lots of new exciting things ready for Christmas Shopping! Larger items can be purchased directly from our new 'Shop' page - these items are too large and fragile to be posted, but can be collected or we can deliver within 20 miles of Exeter. Happy Shopping!

We are thrilled to have secured a place at the amazing Exeter Craft Festival held annually on Cathedral Green in Exeter. Sadly it was cancelled last year due to the pandemic, but this year its looking positive it can go ahead.

Bright Star Glass Begins

May 2020

2020 has been a strange year, it might not seem like the best time to start a business, but for me it was. Like many people I was furloughed from my job for around three months and I was keen to make the most of this opportunity. I have been a stained glass hobbyist for over 10 years having completed an OCN in Stained Glass in 2007. It is a really enjoyable but time consuming craft and I suddenly had a large amount of time to put into it and so Bright Star Glass was born! I hope this will lead to bright things ahead and hope you will join me along the way!

Firing on all cylinders!

After my first year as Bright Star Glass I have achieved one of my goals which was to buy my first Kiln! 
I was very excited to take receipt of my brand new Olympic 18 Kiln from Creative Glass Guild in Bristol - big shout out to them, their customer service was great!
It will allow me to be more creative and to add elements of fused and painted glass which I have been longing to do for many years. I'll hopefully be able to show you some of my experiments and creations soon, but here is one of my first fusings, using recycled float glass!

Craft Fairs

I had hoped to be able to attend a few craft fairs this year to promote my new business, but with the current restrictions many have been cancelled or have been greatly reduced. As soon as we have some booked in we will post them here - stay tuned!
