Colors to choose from...decisions, decisions!
Lots to see and do at Hot Blown Glass. Take a Glass Blowing class or a hands-on session. Come to watch glass blowers at work and shop.

How often do you get to make your own heart-shaped, hot blown glass paperweight? Lisa Pelo of Hot Blown Glass LTD sells her glass work in CCA Gallery (I own one of her Indiana shaped bicentennial paperweights) and offers workshops in the Carmel Arts and Design District on select Second Saturday Gallery Walk days. In the fall, she did glass pumpkins and this time it was heart-shaped paperweights for Mother's Day.Spots are limited, so hop to it and register online to guarantee a spot. It was fun to watch others take their turn and see passersby stop to "ooh" and "aah". Cost was $30 - if I'm going to spend money on a gift, why not make it custom and handmade?My creation turned out beautifully - I made it on a Saturday and picked it up at CCA on a Tuesday. I overheard her say she also offers classes at her studio on the west side - could be worth looking into if interested!

My 11 year old daughter went with her Girl Scout Troop. She absolutely LOVED this experience! The staff was friendly and helpful they educated the girls and provided excellent safety instructions. My daughter thought is was so cool being able to create her own piece of art and choose her own colors. She always marvels at the blown glass creations now she knows what goes in To making them. Definitely a fun family experience to have.

We came from out of town for a private class and we had a blast! Lisa and her team made our experience very entertaining and we love our pieces. Our work had to cure overnight so Lisa worked with us to ship our pieces to us afterwards. 10/10 recommend

Lisa is an excellent teacher. Very patient with each client. She demos and explains and makes sure you get to participate and take ownership of your piece. Great atmosphere. Look forward to doing more classes.
