Design With Fire

Awesome experience with Design with Fire! We went as a small group to a glass fusing class. It's my first time ever doing any type of glass fusing and I had a blast. It is time consuming, but was so worth it. The $41 Groupon gets you two plates to design and they also have glass blowing and bead making classes as well. I was a bit confused at times on the process being a total newb, but I'm so excited to see how my art turned out when coming back next weekend. Full COVID safety is in full force here with sanitation measures of the products. You do sign a waiver acknowledging release of liability in case of any injuries but safety is super simple and straightforward. It's super easy to get the hang of and I really had a great time! I can't wait to try their other classes!

This was a great class with informative instructors. I'm looking forward to attending more sessions.

I found this place on groupon. The class selection on groupon is different then what they have offered online. Groupon is a bit of a complicated process, but it worked out this time. I bought one for my girlfriend and I for the fused glass class. We didn't know what to expect and were happily surprised with the outcome.The teacher was very nice. She gave us directions and then let us on ourThe project could be easy as a pile of scraps or a very detailed design. The place is a bit hard to find. It's in a warehouse. When you pull in go all the way to your right and it's down on your left. There is a sign out front.We look forward to coming back and taking the blown glass class.

I found out about this place through Groupon and although I was a bit skeptical when I saw where it was located, I ended up loving my time there.For 38 bucks I did the intro to glass fusing, where you get to make two small sushi plates. What's great about this place is that the owner just teaches you the basics and lets you create whatever your mind desires. This place is great for all you DIY/artsy people, maybe not so much for people who just throw random pieces on. I'd definitely recommend trying it out however, regardless of your creative skill! It's a great way to spend 3 hours on a Saturday AND you can come back and use their studio!

Found a Groupon for this place and my husband and I did the glass fusion workshop. The Groupon price is just right, would not have been worth it if we had to pay more.It was a nice experience and we have these cute sushi plates for keepsake around the house. The owner was very nice. I would make it a group event if I ever go back, to make it more memorable and fun.

I took the "Introduction to Glass Blowing" class. This class teaches you (along with 10 or so students) to "gather" molten glass, and shape it or "pull" it by hand--you will not actually "blow" glass in this introductory class, as there are LOTS of things to learn, basic skills wise, before you're able to do that. This class teaches you the foundation for working with molten glass, so you're able to advance to actual "blowing" later, if you want--I was not even REMOTELY disappointed that the class didn't include actual air-blowing, it was plenty challenging to learn the basics. I had such a good time, and can't wait to try another class! I had wanted to try this for so long, and I was so happy I did. The instructors Patrick & Linnea are wonderful and make this a fun class for all participants.

Did a Christmas ornament making class and it was awesome! We made about 3 ornaments each in roughly 2 hours. You learn to cut the glass and grind it into certain shapes in order to place it into the design you want. Looking forward to going back to make sushi plates.

This is me on Sunday morning: "Christy you're an R-tard. What kind of person buys a Groupon for a GLASS BLOWING CLASS, and then schedules it first thing in the morning on a SUNDAY...on the same day as Daylight Savings time?!?! What were you thinking?? This is going to SUCK."This is me on Sunday afternoon: "Christy, you rock. You're a glass blowing Jedi. Good call on the class, now you're even smarter and MORE talented that you thought. Glass kicks ass."Who knew that standing in a cold warehouse early on a Sunday would be so much fun?? The instructors were knowledgeable and funny, and gave demos and hands-on instruction in the art of molten glass. Even science nerds like me can ask questions about chemistry and get good answers. And art nerds can name-drop artists and styles and pretend to be cool. And for everyone in between, you can make a cool art piece to take home (though not right away, even when "cooled" they are too hot to touch. Plan to come back several days later to retrieve your handmade treasure). After the pieces were made, the instructors did a demo: a hand blown pilsner glass. Wow. It was amazing to watch the artists at work! I'll never look at glass the same again!

This place is awesome! You can design all kinds of things out of glass here. There are classes offered for the novice. Glass blowing is also offered. This is actually what got my attention. I have always wanted to learn this skill. I took my daughter here for a girls day out. Such a cool bonding experience it was indeed. We made some cool pieces. Will definitely go back to try out and make more things.

I took my partner here on a Monday morning for her birthday and we made 2 sun catchers. Linnea was such a sweet heart and very detailed with showing us how to properly work with the glass. This place is very personable and cute. 10/10 would recommend!!
