Halloween Glass Pumpkin
Crafting Your Way To A Pumpkin That's More Treat Than Trick
Ready to trade in your predictable pumpkin carving kit for something a tad more, let's say, elegant this Halloween? Oh yes, we're talking about making your very own glass pumpkin. Yes, you heard right. Glass. As in, Cinderella's slipper but make it autumn.
It's not every day you get to play with fire and come out with a pumpkin. No experience? No problem. Our wizards, I mean, skilled glass artists, will guide you through the mystical process of glassblowing, ensuring your pumpkin is the envy of every spirit, ghoul and fairy in town. We even cater for 12+ year olds if accompanied by an adult!
Don't wait until the last bat hangs – spaces fill faster than a vampire's diary on a blood moon. Book your spot now and prepare for an experience filled with fun, molten glass and a touch of Halloween magic.
Why This Workshop is Special
You'll have several colour options to choose from, including the traditional orange with a green stem, an earthy brown, a spooky black noir, and a trendy white that's currently en vogue! This year, we're giving you full freedom to customise your colour as well, based on your feedback. Additionally, you will have the opportunity to include a special material that provides a shimmering or iridescent quality to your finished piece when exposed to a torch flame at the end – make sure you ask!
You will use an optic mould to create the signature ridges of a pumpkin. As you shape the glass, blowing air into the piece will give it a round body. The final step is to gather another gob (round blob) of glass and add frit (the colour part) to create the stalk. You will then apply the stalk to the pumpkin and rotate it while pulling upwards to create a spiral effect for a natural appearance. Finally, wrap the glass around a rod, trim off any excess, and allow it to hang down to create a vine-like effect, completing your glass pumpkin masterpiece.
Once the workshop is over, your creation should be left to cool in the annealer for about 1-2 days. This cooling period ensures that your creation is perfectly prepared for its grand unveiling long before the witching hour on 31st October. After all, what's the use of crafting a dazzling glass pumpkin if you can't proudly display it when the time comes? While home delivery can be arranged*, we highly advise personally collecting your item to ensure its safe arrival without any potential transit damage.
