What a wonderful way to spend an afternoon! James and Lorraine welcomed us into their studio with yummy snacks and a bottle of wine, setting a warm, relaxed tone for our experience. While we sipped, James shared the unusual history of glass artistry (which makes for a fascinating story) and then explained the tools and techniques he uses to create his jewelry and other original pieces. Watching him demonstrate the process was very cool and then he invited each of us to create our own piece from scratch. Working with molten glass - feeling the heat, watching the colors change and shaping a rod of glass into an object of art - was amazing and we got to take our creations home with us. The studio is full of character, the hosts are attentive, knowledgeable and thoughtful and the time we spent was just a lot of fun. We absolutely recommend this experience so if you are considering booking it - go for it! It's unique and memorable and something you will want to do again.
