Memorial Cremains Heart + Round Paperweight Workshop
Celebrate Memorial Day With A DIY Keepsake To Commemorate Your Loved Ones.
Memorial Day is the perfect time to celebrate and remember loved ones who have passed, so what better way to honor the holiday than by commemorating their spirit in their very own glass piece. Make your own colorful round or heart memorial paperweight from 2000 degree molten glass with the help of our studio artists. You only use a small portion of cremation ashes from your pet or loved ones to encase in your glass sculpture or simply make a sculpture to commemorate.
After a demo of all the steps, tools, and safety guidelines you will pick your colors from a delightfully wide array of choices. When it’s your turn you will hold the steel rod, turn the glass, and use the tools while sitting at the glass-blowing bench. So much fun, and like nothing you have ever done before! Watch the glass turn from liquid to solid right before your eyes. Once finished your piece will cool for over 24 hours and be engraved with an inscription of your choice. Ready for you to pick up the following week.

Registration
Make sure you register for the correct class. We are unable to move you into the other workshop.
Project Pickup
Since glass has to cool down slowly, you are not able to take your piece home the same day. On the day of your workshop, our glass artists will let you know the earliest day and time you can come back to the studio to get your masterpieces!
If the studio is far out of your way, we can always ship pieces to you at your cost. We offer a flat rate shipping option of $12 to ship locally.
