Would you like to learn how to make your own beads?  I am located in London, but not quite set up for teaching yet.  I can recommend the Creative Glass Guild, as they are the group that took over my teaching set-up in Bristol. Who knows, you might even get me as a teacher on your course day! 

If Bristol or London don't work for you, check out Glass Beadmakers UK for a list of teachers all around the UK.  If you just have a couple questions, feel free to contact me or post your question on the great forums at Frit Happens, where there's an amazing wealth of information.
