What to Wear?
For Glassblowing Classes:
- All-natural fibres like cotton; no synthetics.
- Lightweight t-shirts and long pants are recommended.
- Wear clothes you don't mind getting sweaty and a bit dirty in.
- Closed-toed shoes like sneakers or boots, or comfortable shoes that cover your entire foot. No open-toed or high-heeled shoes, no sandals, no ballet flats.
- Avoid jewellery, as it can heat up and burn your skin
- Tie your hair back. (We provide hair ties and barrettes if you forget.)
For Beadmaking, Flameworking and Sandblasting:
- All-natural fibres like cotton; no synthetics.
- Long sleeved shirt with a crew neck or higher, as sometimes small pieces of glass can chip off while working.
