Partnering with Springbrook
Make your own ornament with us! This experience allows you to work with hot glass, and one on one with our instructors to design your own blown glass ornament. You will start by choosing a design, and then your own colors. Then, with our professional glass blower you will create your own ornament. The instructor will gather the hot glass out of the furnace and then your colors and design will be added on. Meanwhile, in between each step, you will be on the cool end of the blow pipe reheating the glass. Once ready, you will inflate your ornament by blowing air through the moving blow pipe ( or: “ through a sanitized personal hose connected to the pipe” ) while our glassblower guides the glass with special tools to create a constriction that allows the glass to come off the pipe. We will then add a hook to your ornament with some fresh glass, and it is then placed in an oven to begin an overnight slow cooking process. Ornaments are ready for pick up the following day, or maybe shipped for additional fee within the U.S.
Afternoon class 1 PM to 4 PM — Maximum 7 People
