Description: In this 2 hour flame-working workshop participants will design and assist in the making of their very own glass pumpkin pendant! Participants will have the option to choose the colors of their pendant. No experience is necessary, all skill levels are welcome. Participants can expect to learn basic flame-working techniques. Our instructor will facilitate as much hands on work as possible, allowing one individual to create their pumpkin pendant. Our very experienced instructor will closely guide you every step of the way, and determine how β€œhands on” each experience will be. This will vary from individual to individual to ensure the best experience and end product.

What is Flame-working? :

The technique of sculpting objects from rods and tubes of glass that, when heated over a flame, become soft and can be manipulated into the desired shape. Formerly, the source of the flame was an oil or paraffin lamp used in conjunction with foot-powered bellows; today, gas-fueled torches are used.

Finished pendent will be approximately 1” long.

  • Unless specified, glass workshops are recommended for ages 14 and older. Those under the age of 18 must turn in a signed parental consent form and have a guardian present during their experience.

  • All tools, materials, and finished pieces are provided and included in prices. 

  • All pieces made through workshops will have to go through a process called annealing. The 2100 degree Fahrenheit glass has to be slowly brought down to temperature over a 24 hr period in a controlled temperature kiln. This process assures your glass pieces are structurally sound and will not form cracks during the cooling process. Once properly annealed, your piece will be ready to be picked up the following week after your workshop. We will reach out to each participant to notify them when their piece is ready for pickup. If you live out of sate we will be more than happy to ship your piece to you at the cost of shipping.
