Blow a Bauble Class

Join us for a short and fun glassblowing experience suitable for complete beginners.

We’ll demonstrate making a bauble then guide you through the stages. We’ll gather the glass from the furnace for you, you’ll choose your colours and we’ll add them, we will add an initial bubble and then you will blow up your very own bauble! We can’t guarantee it will be round, but it will be all yours! 

Your bauble needs to cool overnight, and we can then send it to you for £10.00 postage and packing. Or you can collect it from us after 48 hours at a mutually agreed time (normally on Tuesdays).

This class is suitable for complete beginners or those with some skills. Ages 10+ only. All children must be supervised by an adult at all times in the studio.
