点评:Passed by Glasform, saw sculptures in the grounds illuminated by the sun - wow!!
Saw more info on website and was delighted to find out that you could get 121 glass blowing lesson, so booked lesson for son Nathan who loves Murano glass as Christmas present.
Can't praise Andrew Hayes who was the teacher enough - encouraging and patient, giving loads of confidence to his pupil.
Son made 3 bubble spheres to get the feel of the glass and the tools, he made a glass and a vase - Andrew gave advice on the colours to use for the vase.
One week later, we fetched the "treasures", unfortunately our son's glass didn't survive the cooling process which can happen BUT Andrew made one himself for our son!
Nathan's vase is brilliant, he is so proud of it - the glass and vase now have pride of place in our home.
It was great to watch Mr Ditchfield work and to see the gallery of his glassware - lots of items brought back with us for special gifts.
Our son LOVED his time with Andrew and will be making a return visit full of the knowledge he's gained already and confident his next glass will survive!
A great experience is one that you would want to repeat AND THIS WAS GREAT.
Thanks to all at Glasform for a special day!!!
See you again soon......
翻译:路过Glasform,看到场地上的雕塑在阳光的照耀下熠熠生辉——哇!!
在网站上查看了更多信息,很高兴得知可以参加121号玻璃吹制课程,于是就给儿子Nathan预订了这节课,他非常喜欢穆拉诺玻璃,把它作为圣诞礼物。
老师Andrew Hayes真是赞不绝口——他鼓励学生,耐心十足,给了学生很大的信心。
儿子做了三个泡泡球来感受玻璃和工具,他还做了一个玻璃杯和一个花瓶——Andrew还就花瓶的颜色给出了建议。
一周后,我们终于拿到了“宝贝”,可惜的是,儿子的玻璃杯在冷却过程中没能保存下来,这种情况是常有的。不过,Andrew亲手为儿子做了一个!
Nathan的花瓶太棒了,他为此感到非常自豪——现在,这几个玻璃杯和花瓶成了我们家最显眼的位置。
观看Ditchfield先生的制作过程,以及参观他的玻璃器皿展厅,真是太棒了——很多作品都带回来作为特别的礼物。
我们的儿子非常喜欢和Andrew在一起的时光,他一定会带着他已经学到的知识再次造访,并且相信他的下一个玻璃器皿一定能保存完好!
美好的体验是那种你愿意再次体验的体验,这次体验太棒了。
感谢Glasform的所有人,让我们度过了一个特别的日子!!!
期待下次再见……
