Create a colorful blown-glass heirloom with the help of our Studio Team. Choose from an array of color options to make your ornament unique. With the instructor’s help, apply colorful crushed glass to molten clear glass on a long metal tube. You will inflate the ornament with a special compressed air device.

If you prefer, when you arrive, you can select a fairy orb or a solid, sculpted heart or starfish instead of an ornament. These objects are manipulated by hand with metal tools. For ages 5+

Participants and instructors must wear a mask throughout the entire process, and hand sanitizer is provided. Glass objects must cool slowly in a kiln and will be available on a later date. We will contact you when your art is ready for pick-up or shipment.

Individual sessions are offered every 15 minutes. Groups should select back to back timeslots to avoid overlapping experiences. Read our safety precautions and FAQ.
