Halloween Glass Pumpkin Workshop
Workshops & Classes

Halloween Glass Pumpkin Workshop

Halloween Glass Pumpkin Crafting Your Way To A Pumpkin That’s More Treat Than Trick This Halloween season, skip the messy pumpkin guts and join us for a one-of-a-kind experience: crafting your own glass pumpkin! Whether you’re a total beginner or just looking to try something new, our expert glass artists will guide you through every fiery step. You’ll transform molten glass into a gorgeous, glowing pumpkin – perfect for adding a touch of autumn magic to your home. Ages 12+ are welcome (if accompanied by an adult), and no experience is necessary – just a love for some Halloween spirit! Spots disappear faster than sweets during trick-or-treat, so book now and create something truly unforgettable this spooky season. Why This Workshop is Special You’ll be able to choose from several colour options, including classic orange with a green stem, earthy brown, black, and white. This year, there are more colours available than ever. You can also opt to add a special material that creates a shimmering or iridescent finish when exposed to a torch flame at the final stage – just ask during the workshop. You’ll use an optic mould to form the pumpkin’s ridges. Blowing air into the glass creates the rounded shape. A second gathering of glass is then used to form the stalk, with frit added for colour. The stalk is applied to the pumpkin and pulled while rotating to create a natural spiral effect.
