    Glass plate- after gluing pieces to clear glass
    Melissa O.

    I took a class here with my friend, she reserved spots for us in advance (it was my birthday gift!). We're both typically artsy people and figured it would be our cup of tea. It had its challenges but was so fun. Everyone gets seated at a large working bench and given tools to work with as well as the materials needed to bond your glass to. The instructor goes over directions and explains the methods of melting the glass at the beginning of the workshop. There are trays of colorful glass pieces to choose from that you cut into smaller squares or triangles (more elaborate designs are for more advanced students) and you glue the designs onto a clear glass however you'd like. Once that's done, you write your contact info on a sheet and the instructor asks you how you'd like the design fused (the design edges soften and melt closer together, the hotter the temp). You can then pick up your finished project a week later. There are several projects and methods but this review is specifically for a plate with slightly curved edges. I would definitely do this again now that I know the process. It was challenging to come up with a design and immediately start working, so it would help to have a basic idea of what you'd like your design to look like before you begin gluing. I would definitely recommend trying any of the beginner workshops!

    Been to Fire Glass Studios a couple times. If you are a glass art enthusiast this is a stop you have to make. I've done stained glass before and glass blowing. This is basically a fusion of the skills from stained glass and the 3D form from melting glass. My second visit with Jodi was amazing. She is the type of art instructor who helps you tap into your creative mind and be playful. My sister and I enjoyed the class with Jodi a lot. I love my rainbow piano and it happens to be one of my favorite glass pieces I made.

    Final project.  It turned out so cool!  Love it!

    My friend and I took a class to see what glass fusion was all about. We fell in love with the whole process! So far, we have completed two projects and we are looking forward to making more! The shop is clean and well organized. When we arrived at class, our supplies were set up and ready for us to get to work. Michal showed us the tools, glass and how it all works then let us go to create. She is an attentive and talented artist who shared her knowledge and creativity. She was there throughout the process and offered helpful hints or ideas for our creations. Amazing class and wonderful artist. Thank you, Michal! We greatly enjoyed our glass works and are coming back for more!

    I was initially looking for stain glass painting but I'm so glad I found this too. One of my new, never ending, list of hobbies where I get to de-stress, relax and get creative. I've done 3 projects now and have had such a wonderful time there. Michal, the owner, is so sweet and kind, she always welcomes me and makes me feel comfortable. Going back soon for my 4th project!

    Had the opportunity to check out this studio and let me tell you I was impressed. As an aspiring artist it was amazing to get my creative juices flowing and get to work around glass. I have never had the opportunity beforehand but Ms.Leonard was exceptional. She was extremely charismatic and made me feel as though I was michelangelo painting the Sistine chapel. My artwork turned out better than expected and let me tell you I WILL BE BACK! !!!!!

    Fun multicolored plate to make!

    I have known Michal and the Fire Glass Studios team now for several years. I always enjoyed my time there learning new things in the various classes and open lab time I've had there. Unfortunately I've had to take most of the last year off as I have been traveling out of state monthly to help my family with an elderly parent. Soon I can't wait to get back to the studio to learn and experiment with some ideas I have. There are several other classes I would like to take to learn other techniques. Michal and the other instructors are amazing. Very kind, patient and full of knowledge. It has been a joy spending time with them and other students and Artists there. I consider them all good friends. I highly recommend Fire Glass Studios and love this unique, beautiful, fun and wonderful type of glass art. Give it a try and discover the Artist in you!

    I have been going to this studio for over a year, having waited until it was safe to be in groups again. I've taken four or five classes, and I've gone to open studio at least 20 times. Everyone from the owner to a student who is there working on his or her own project, has generously helped me whenever I asked. Open studio is supposed to be a time for individuals to do their own work. There is not supposed to be any instruction and we don't pay for instruction. Just for access to all of the great equipment in the studio. Nevertheless, whenever I asked, the owner or one of the other people attending the open studio have generously helped me to understand what I needed to do to fix a project, or how I could make a project. Not surprisingly, there have been projects that didn't come out the way I wanted them to; some could be fixed and some couldn't. But when I first started going to the studio I barely knew how to cut glass, let alone figure out how to clean up a project that had my fingerprints all over it, or how to fix a large plate that came out of the kiln with a huge bubble in the middle because I had not dried the glass properly or because I'd used too much glue. And although I was supposed to be working on my own, everyone I asked would stop what they were doing and patiently explain what I needed to know, even to the point where one woman went home, measured what she had done to make something, then gave me the exact instructions - in writing - the next time I saw her. Every class I've taken there has taught me how to do something special or unique, and everything I've made in those classes have come out beautifully or Michal, the owner, has helped me fix it so the end result was beautiful. I have spent many hours there and most of those hours Michal was there. I have never heard her even raise her voice in anger. In fact, sometimes I wonder how she can remain as patient and even-tempered as she does since all day long - even during open studio - someone is constantly asking her questions and asking her for help. She never turns them down. She might ask the person to wait a few minutes, but she always comes over and answers our questions or helps with our problem. I have come to really love glass fusing and I've attached a few pictures of my projects. I made all of these in the last eight months, and I plan to take on some even more advanced work going forward, always at FireGlassStudio.

On the day of the party, we arrived a little early to set up and the crafting tables were all set up for the kids to do their craft project. There was a side table with a customized printed coloring sheet (thank you for that Craft Bar, what a great surprise!). In the back was a separate table with a blank skateboard where the guests put their hand prints as our take home memory of the party (last minute detail with the help of Talia). The side room that is fun and festive, was ready for us to set up the cake, food and party favors. The team at Craft Bar were all great. They were so sweet and guided each child throughout their craft project. Each guest left with a decorated craft project and I was so impressed with how creative everyone was. The kids especially loved the bar with all the embellishments that they could pick 4 items. There is a separate area where the birthday boy could pick one. This was 2 hours of fun and I completely forget there was a downgraded hurricane happening!!!
