My mom had the idea of taking a group of us to check out a glass-blowing shop in Sonoma. It was so much fun and such a memorable experience! My dad was so nice to stay home with little Caroline while we went on this outing. Thank you, Parents!!
This furnace was 1000 degrees. He had to stick the rod with the liquidy glass in there several times throughout the process to keep it malleable.
Charlotte was too young to participate, but she enjoyed watching it all!
(My brother, Gino, also did a great job making a bowl, but the photos we took of him were on his own camera.)
Here are our results! I hung them up from our kitchen light.
My “Root Beer Float”-inspired ornament. Yummy. Everything I had envisioned it to be!
Chase’s ornament. Looks like Earth… With a whole bunch of continents.
Charlotte’s purple ornament that Pace so kindly made for her.
