Paperweights


A couple of weeks ago, Debbie and I took a class in making glass paperweights at a glassblowing school. It was lots of fun, though very hot. We each made 4 paperweights: a clear one, one in which we just did some free-form experimenting, one in which we made bubbles with a pointed object that we pressed into our colored piece, and one with which we used a flower mold. Pictures of the final products are here. And no, I don't know why the picture above is cut off. It's the full picture in the link.
