Glass blowing


I did a glass blowing workshop last weekend with Rachel Robichaud. It was great to be back at harbourfront and finally able to do something that I have wanted to for so long.
It was magical to say the least!
I was desperate to touch the hot glass and shape it the way one would do with clay... which is probably why I enjoyed using the paper so much...it got me closest to the hot glass.
Even though it was a whole weekend of standing in front of the glory hole sweating and drinking buckets of water it was a fantastic experience and I would do it again! (and again ...and again...!)
Will post some pictures of the finished work...thanks Rachel!
