Create Glass Pendants In-Person

Part sand art, part alchemy, it's a bit of a mystery how your pendants will emerge from the kiln!

We clean shop with this super simple workshop for making your own pendants using our glass kiln. We like to use glass frit and the tiny glass shards left over from stained glass workshops that are too small to do anything else with. Think old school colored sand art, but at the end you put the sand into an oven that reaches 1400 F and melts everything together. Fun! Each attendee gets to make 3 individual glass pendants. 

Time is precious, so please arrive 5 minutes early to get settled in. We'll need to wrap up the workshop by 5:15pm in order to fire the kiln, clean up and reset in time for the next shift.

Note: the kiln will run overnight then attendees can collect their finished pieces the following Friday.
