ARTIST & INSTRUCTOR

FAERIE FLEUR

Faerie Fleur was born and raised in Melbourne in a historic house full of antiques. She was the youngest of 5 siblings. Her mother was an antique dealer, and her passion was collecting glass objects.

Her passion for Glass Blowing started when she started creating Leadlights with Ian Readshaw as a hobby.Along with this magical beginning, she became the owner of Tamborine Mountain’s “Fairies on the Walk”.Seven years of Faerie face painting, storytelling and fairy design.
Since then, she started creating a foresty atmosphere in her colorful mushroom gardens around her glass studio.

Faerie’s first introduction to Kiln Fired Works took her to study Dichroic Glass, and that was the beginning of her journey as a professional Glass Blower. She also is qualified as a torch worker. (lampwork)
