Before You Come

Getting ready

  • Wear closed-toe shoes and dress for heat.
  • Bring water. I'll have bottled water too.
  • My shop gets very warm, especially in summer. If you're sensitive to heat, book a fall class. They fill up fast.

In the shop

  • Listen carefully to every instruction. That's how everybody stays safe.
  • Don't touch any equipment or tools unless I tell you to.
  • No non-paying spectators (parents are the exception).
  • Ask me anything. All questions are welcome.

Booking and payment

  • Pay in full, or put $100 down to hold your date (Ornament classes are paid in full), here on the site or by Venmo @sweatyglass.
  • Already paid a deposit? Pay your balance here.
  • Need to reschedule? Give me at least 24 hours' notice. No-shows aren't refunded.
  • All taxes are included in the prices above.

Bringing a Crew?

Large groups and team building, by request.

Call or email me and we'll find a date that works. Coming soon: kids classes, slumping & fusing, and bead lampworking.
