Make Your Own Glass Heart-Themed Pendant, Paperweight, or Marble - Flameworking Studio

Join us for a fun, hands-on glassblowing class and create your own personalized glass heart-themed pendant, paperweight or marble— just in time for Valentine's Day!

Working side-by-side with an experienced glassblower, you'll get an up-close introduction to the mesmerizing art of hot glass. The class begins with a live demonstration showing the full process, followed by your turn to craft your piece step by step. Design ideas are welcome!

You'll learn how to:

  • Apply vibrant colors to molten glass
  • Shape the semi-molten form using traditional tools and techniques
  • Sculpt the glass into a beautiful heart design (pendant or paperweight) or marble

Each student creates their own unique heart pendent, paperweight, or marble... making it a perfect gift, keepsake, or special treat for yourself. Your finished piece will be placed in a controlled cooling (annealing) process for safety and durability. Completed hearts will be boxed and available for pickup starting the following Monday after 5:00 PM (or via mail within one week).

Important Details:

Eye protection is provided as needed.

Wear natural fibers like cotton and closed-toe shoes. Avoid loose sleeves.

Age requirement: Minimum 13 years old.

This beginner-friendly experience requires no prior experience — just bring your creativity and a sense of adventure! Limited spots available — reserve your spot today and make something heartfelt this Valentine's season.
