Glassblowing courses

Vases add a dash of sophistication to anyone’s space. You'll choose 2 to 3 colors to apply to the surface as polka dots or swirls. An instructor will guide you on color application, shaping, and help you with blowing and finalizing your piece

Add colorful flair to your home decor with a custom, blown-glass bowl. Creating the vessel of your choice, we use centrifugal force to craft a bowl with straight walls or wavy edges. As an additional option, for bubble bowls (two nested bowls with a floating layer between inside and outside walls), we will blow a bubble and then suck in to create the inside of the bowl. For this class, you choose your color, shape, and help transfer your glass from one pipe to another to shape all aspects of your bowl.

This frosty cutie will keep you company through the season! You will add the white glass color to the hot clear glass and use hand tools to shape it into the body of the snowman. You will add eyes and dapper buttons to give your snowman some personality. You will then choose up to 2 colors to create his stylish glass hat with the help of your instructor.

Create a gorgeous, glass vessel that can be used for cocktails, wine, soft drinks, or even a vase! You’ll start by selecting bits of colored glass and then partner with a glass artist to create your artwork. You help apply the heat, shape, and hollow the glass to craft a functional piece of drinkware.

Stay on the cool side of the pipe while creating your beautiful, blown glass pumpkin. You’ll start by selecting colored glass to shape with advanced tools. Via a blowpipe, air will be blown into the glass before your instructor helps you twist and loop the glass stem to finish off your pumpkin.

Resembling wish balls, fairy orbs provide a hands-on experience for creating hollow glass spheres with stringer designs inside. You'll choose from a selection of pastel glass colorants with gold glitter or metallic accents applied to the surface of your design. You will see your glass take shape as air is blown into a unique, fairy-like orb.

Inspired by 1800s folklore, create your very own wish ball! You’ll get to pick from a selection of glass colors as you are guided through the process step by step with a professional gaffer. As you poke and press into the glass, a bubble is blown. You will be assisted in forming the interior decoration that is unique to wish balls.

Ornaments aren’t just for the holidays! Hung from a shepherd's hook, a hand-blown glass ornament can add a splash of color to your outside garden or in your window as a suncatcher! You will dip molten glass into your color(s), then shape the glass with advanced tools. Air will then be blown into the glass to create a bubble. After removal from the blow pipe, a glass loop is added. Create your very own with the guidance of a professional gaffer.
