SallyO reviewed: Glass Bauble blowing experience with Chris

"We had a lovely time as a group of 6. I would do it again and reccomend to everyone. Chris is an excellent teacher, explains clearly, demonstrates and is on hand to help - so gives you a lot of confidence. The actual glass blowing is magical and the end result, with help, is a beautiful bauble. My only feeback is around the time that it takes - it is really interesting to watch each other, but if you are a group you will overrun....especially if you ask lots of questions! "
