Make your own crystal clear, sparkling glass icicle ornaments inspired by nature!. These are beautiful when hung on your tree, catching and reflecting the lights in all directions. We will discuss basic safety techniques for the studio as well as work in the oxygen-fuel torch using borosilicate glass to practice making loops for the top of the ornament as well as make the ornament itself.
