Create beautiful hollow glass ornaments by glass blowing.
Try your skill at glass blowing using the same methods still practiced in Europe to make
beautiful hollow glass ornaments. We will heat pre-formed glass cylinders, known as
Glaskolben, on a gas torch and then blow them out to make hollow spheres about 1.5” in
diameter. A selection of colored glass will be available to add to your ornament to make a
unique and colorful creation. Instruction will be provided on safety, how to heat and blow out
the glass ornament, and methods for adding colored glass. You will also learn how to finish the
top of the ornament and add a metal cap for hanging. The class fee includes supplies for
creating 5 ornaments to take home at the end of class.
Your instructor, Steve Bay, is a glass artist that creates sculpture and jewelry using
flameworking and fusing (@stevebayglass). Steve applies his marine biology background to
capture the beauty and remarkable design of nature in his art. Class size is limited to eight
people to ensure personal attention from the instructor. Participants must be at least 16 years
of age. For safety, please wear only cotton clothing, long pants, and closed toe shoes during the
class. Long hair should be secured away from the face. All supplies and materials will be
provided. Questions? Contact Steve at burnedfingers18@gmail.com .
