Glass Flameworking - Make Your Own Flower, Egg, Paperweight, Pendant, or Marble
Join us for a fun, hands-on glassblowing class and Make Your Own Flower, Egg, Paperweight, Pendant, or Marble. Class takes place with 2 students per hour. Students will take turns working with the instructor.
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 pieces step by step.
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 the final shape design
Each student creates their own unique paperweight, pendant, or marble. Finished pieces will be placed in a controlled cooling (annealing) process for safety and durability. Completed pieces will be boxed and available for pickup starting the following Monday after 6:00 PM (or via mail within one week upon request).
