12:30PM Blown Spiderweb Pumpkin 10/11

Blown Spiderweb Pumpkin $225 per person

Get into the spooky spirit by creating your own creepy, crawly pumpkin! Learn how to roll into colored glass crystals, wrap hot glass around your piece to create a webbed effect,  place a spider murrini* on its glassy web, and finally blow and shape the glass to create your pumpkin! Each pumpkin is finished by topping it off with a curly stem in your choice of color. This pumpkin class involves some of our favorite processes, so we are certain you’ll have a scary-good time🕷️

*Murrini are thin, cross-sectional slices of a glass cane (a long rod of glass) that reveal a colored pattern or image when cut.

We hope you are enjoying shopping on our website. We strive to provide the best image of what we are offering for you. Please note sometimes the colors in our products may look a little different in natural light. Use this color guide to see the exact colors placed in front of a white background.

All of the glass has been hand-blown or sculpted — no machine helps us make our product but our seasoned hands and our love for the art.
