Heather Allen

Heather Allen green lentil braclet2 Hi, I’m based in Sheffield, South Yorkshire, United kingdom.

I discovered glass lampwork bead making purely by chance, when I bought some glass lampwork beads at a craft fair. I was intrigued with how they were made. Six months later, I had my first lampwork bead lesson with Teresa and Martin at Tuffnell Glass. I’ve been hooked ever since, waiting for my days off work to pursue my new hobby.

Heather Allen green wrist braceletI am one of those annoying people who can’t sit still without doing something with my hands. I’ve found lampwork to be a wonderful way to relax from my job as a nurse at a busy hospital. Lampworking allows me to be creative, while forgetting about the stresses of work, at least until my next shift.
