Create a unique and colorful addition to your desk by swirling your very own Pen Holder! After going over the equipment and safety in the glassblowing studio, students will have the opportunity to choose 1 or 2 colors before heading into the shop for some fun. Stand up close while an experienced instructor collects clear molten glass from our 2100 degree furnace. Grab the safe end of the rod and add your chosen colors to the outside of the clear glass blob. Melt it all together in our re-heating furnace that runs around 2400 degrees and watch your colors make a beautiful swirly pattern, before rolling on our metal table (marver) to shape the glass. Students will assist while the instructor wraps the molten glass into a curly-q before finishing it up by pressing it into the glass stand. An awesome experience, with a functional object to use forever.
