You will learn the basics of lampworking AKA glassblowing. The main difference is glassblowing is done with a very large oven called a glory hole, while lampworking uses a torch. This is a 4-hour class and about 1 hour is spent training you on safety and techniques. This is split up throughout the experience. You will spend about a full 3 hours on the torch playing with molten glass. In the class, we can go over basic items like an implosion or a mushroom marble, pendants, glass ice cubes, and other more simple-to-make items. Glassblowing is freaking fun and amazing, but it is not easy at the start. Be warned, you may experience too much fun, melting glass in fire is just plain cool! Another project we have been working on incorporating is trying to make a pipe with you for a small added cost. It takes a good amount of time to make one from scratch so we have pre-made pipe slugs you can pick from so we can whip it up and potentially add a marble you made to it in a timely fashion. The pre-made slugs do cost a little extra as it takes more labor, but you get a really cool extra special piece. With this added option the teacher will be the one making the pipe towards the end of the class if not after the class so all who still need help can get the help they need. We use an ozone generator nightly to sanitize the work facility to ensure a healthy work zone

Welcome to the Colorado chapter of an Experience I hatched in California. It was so fun (well I thought so) that I outfitted a shop here to keep it going. The overall process takes about an hour per guest. We get to explore the fascinating and enjoyable process of folding a coin into a ring. The spoon ring process is similar and a bit simpler. I have lots of coins and spoons to choose from, which are included in your Experience. If you have a coin or spoon of your own, it is quite possible we can turn it into a one-of-a-kind treasure. Please make sure your coin is non-magnetic and at least the size of a quarter. Smaller spoons, like a demitasse, are much easier to craft into a ring. A commentary on children: While I'm sure your little darlings are brilliant, perfectly behaved and have an infinite attention span, they probably don't have the body mass or strength to effectively work the tooling. This is fuzzy math, of course, so I'll let you be the judge. You will be entering the No Tipping Zone so let's just make amazing things and tell lies without that concern hanging in the background. PLEASE READ: My posted times are flexible but I had to put something out there. If need be I can probably slide the timing to accommodate your day. I hope to hear from you! Chris

Come relax in our fun, colorful atmosphere for an afternoon or evening of guided painting, whilst sipping on a few glasses of wine! This experience offers different paintings based on the current season and/or holiday, so you will get a few options to choose from based on our theme for the month. It will be myself or my husband teaching, or both of us depending on the day and time. This class is mainly for beginners, but if you'd like to come blow us away with your skills, please do! We promise to make it light-hearted and allow you to paint something you can be proud of, but we always encourage those who want to add more at home to do so! We have great insider knowledge for where to get the best supplies, so please don't hesitate to ask!

This is a 3 hour individual session to try your hand at making pottery. I will give a quick studio tour and demonstrate wedging clay then move on to the potters wheel and show you how it is done.

Shipping finished pots is an extra cost and participants may make additional pots for an extra charge.

Welcome to the collaborative world of paint and masks! These masks are festive, wearable, or can simply be hung on your wall to add more flair to your current décor!

You will be able to dazzle and embellish your mask with all sorts of fun and sparkly pieces, anyway you please, or use only paint!

When you arrive at the apiary I will have tea ready for us to sit down in the yard and discuss any questions you may have and to get to know each other a bit. Then we will take a quick bathroom break before we suit up! You will want to have a baseball cap with hair pulled back because there is no touching your face after we get dressed. It is a small walk to the hives themselves were we will say a little introduction to the hive before cracking the propolis seal and taking a peak! We will investigate the health of the hive, note anything out of the ordinary and ask that the bees tell us if they need anything. When we are done looking at the hives we will button them back up and head back to the house to get out of our suits! I will provide a pitcher of water so that we can cool off and discuss any questions that popped up and then we will say our goodbyes for the day!
