Look What I Made!


I took a glassblowing "experience" workshop on Sunday. I've been talking about taking an art class since my 28 by 28 and never got around to it. So when I got this opportunity, I was excited and nervous. My last art class, a ceramics class, did not go so well. I was in a class with more advanced students and an impatient teacher so I was worried that glassblowing would be similar. I was pleasantly surprised. The instructor was patient, encouraging, and allowed me to make what I wanted. I was still a little worried that it wouldn't turn out right because we couldn't see the true color. I picked it up today and I love it. I made it to match my office so I can bring myself fresh flowers. I would love to take an 8-week session but the only thing stopping me is the $575 price tag.

Love it! And now instead of giving coupons for free therapy sessions, you can make vases for holiday gifts :)
I'm kidding. It's really nice!
