At Greenfield Village in Detroit, we got to the glass-blowers late in the day, and were disappointed to see that we missed the opportunity to do some. For $25, you could make a flower.

This guy forgot to make a tiny hole for the anus - that is the point of having the tail up like that, right?

Ali S, I'm sure you could find a class. I took a black smithing class last year and had the time of my life. I think a friend of mine took a glass blowing class in LA a couple of years ago (my black smithing class was in Austin). Just look around at community colleges and adult education classes.

and here is another glass blower!

when sus and lv refer to it being "hot" what they're really saying is you get to stick your hand about 2-3 ft. from a crucible (aka a pot) that has molten glass in it at around 2100 degrees F. its a sweat job/hobby, but so freaking fun!

a major downside: whenever i tell people i blow glass, the first question they usually ask is "will you make me a pipe?".... no
