Very professional glassblowing set up, and excellent instruction from business owner Keith. He is willing to try anything you can think of doing with molten glass. If you would love to try affordable art/crafting/repairing clean borosilicate glass; if you want to bring to life a fluid, colorful idea brewing in the back of your mind; if you like the Netflix show Blown Away; if you don't feel particularly artsy, but you like landscaping or embroidering or pottery or ceramics or sculpture or making stuff with your hands with instantant results -- book an appointment right away!

Remember: hot glass looks like cold glass. The studio is located in the owner's garage, with proper ventilation. Dress according to weather outside. The house is on a corner and will sneak up on you, and we were allowed to park our one car in the free spot in...
Read moreI’ll admit, I was a little hesitant walking into a garage—but what we found inside was something truly special. The charm we created together, and the kindness and patience he showed with my kids (ages 6 and 12), was beyond wonderful. It became a highlight of our trip.
This may not be a polished or flashy venue, but some of the most meaningful treasures are found in the most unexpected places. I wholeheartedly recommend this experience for any family.
Let me know if you'd like to adjust the tone further—more playful,...
Read moreJust had a date night session with my wife. It was absolutely amazing. We both had a great experience. Keith was very honest and welcoming. Very stand up owner. Showed us first hand and was very patient with us through out the session. If you want an experience filled with positivity or just trying to dip your toes into the trade, Blown Opportunities is the place to go. Thank you for the time and experience Keith. We will definitely be returning. And I for one would love to learn more about the process of...
