  •   Great Project
By on
Pros : Excellent instructor (Val) Suitable for all skill levels and artistic talent
Cons :
Other Thoughts : Second time I've taken this class. The pocket vases are easy and make great gifts. You can make a large one and still have time to do a couple of smaller ones. Whether filled with flowers or some other decorative item, or just left empty and displayed that way, it works!

  •   Excellent class!
By on
Pros : Wide variety of skill levels from 0 to those that already had yrs of experience. Great explanations and examples. Yes, come w some ideas, but be creative on site. LOVED that we could choose our own glass!! Make a large project and then another smaller pocket vase to be hung in a window. Scrap glass was available so that was excellent option to experiment w other colors of glass. My projects were mailed to me since I lived out of town and arrived in perfect condition in 2 days! I was amazed. YES I will definitely take this class again!

  •   Fused Pocket Vase
By on
Pros : great instructor, adequate time to complete multiple projects, plenty of room to work.
Cons :
Other Thoughts : a suggestion - some type of description of size & number of projects allowed & a list of possible materials to be used. in this case, because it was customer choice, a suggestion to bring a pattern of choice, thus allowing the instructor to assist with glass selection and cutting instead of finding and/or enlarging patterns provided.
