Great if your looking for something different to experience

Me and my husband love trying new adventures and being huge fans of the show blown away i decided to gift this experience for my husbands birthday. Both debby and izach were so welcoming and patient. Your involved in every part of the process of glass making and decisions of what you would like to make. Everything is for your safety and all processes and equipment explained in great detail before you begin. We will definately return in the future and very happy with the pieces we were able to make! Thank you both

Keeps getting better

After my first visit was so successful I decided to get (overly?) ambitious for my second attempt. Izach must have thought I was mad but went with my concept and expertly helped me to create two, although not perfect, pieces that not only am I surprised managed to survive to get home, I absolutely love. Thanks so much and I will be back.

A great company and product

After a slight glitch with the online order I rang the company and spoke with Debby who was brilliant. Everything was sorted quickly and my glass pumpkin was delivered within a few days. The pumpkin takes pride of place on the mantelpiece and it’s the envy of all who see it.

Than you Robert for taking the time to leave us a review and for bothering to let us know that there was a glitch in the system - we greatly appreciate both. And we are glad the pumpkin is a hit, its always good to hear they arrive safely and are what was hoped for. May there be many more pumpkins in your future!

Great Product, Great Business

Ordered a pumpkin but I wanted to tweak the design a little, they were very accommodating and made it the next working day. Debby explained the process and kept me updated on its progress. When it was completed it was sent very quickly and was very well packaged. I am extremely pleased with the piece and could not have wished for better service.
Many thanks Fire Work Glass Studio.

What an excellent experience this was

What an excellent experience this was I was totally unprepared for how interesting and exhilarating it was going to be. Isaac was excellent in his explanation of how the glass works why it bends and he was so kind when we couldn’t quite grasp the art off Glass Blowing but we walked away with some fabulous pieces of artwork that we would never have purchased. Probably Debbie and Steve were also excellent hosts as were the staff at the Avonwick local pub.

Thank you Liz for your kind review we really do appreciate that you took the time. It was our pleasure to host you in the hotshop and we do understand how daunting working with this molten material can be - it certainly focuses the mind:) Its always nice to cool off with a cheeky beverage afterwards and we love our local Avon Inn.

Beautiful Glass - Fab Family Experience

We had such a fantastic family experience at Fire Work Glass Studio! Izach gave a great demonstration and guided us step by step, making sure we each created a beautiful finished piece. His designs are incredible, and he really works with you so it feels personal and fun. It’s very much a welcoming family business — Debby was so helpful with all communication and even captured amazing photos and videos of us in action. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a unique, hands-on experience!

Excellent service

Debby from Fire Work Glass Studio was super helpful. There was an issue with the website, so I used the WhatsApp contact option and got a response very quickly. They helped me get my order sorted whilst they fixed the issue on their website. She was very helpful and I really appreciated all her help getting the item delivered. It was a gift and the recipient was over the moon with it.

Thank you Brigitta for both your review and your understanding while we fixed our website. It means a great deal that you bothered to connect with us via an alternative method rather than just giving up and going elsewhere - the fact that your gift was well received is the icing on the cake. Thank you so much.

Just wanted to say a big thank you to…

Just wanted to say a big thank you to Izack, Debby and Steve. I had the best time learning with Izack in his amazing studio and workshop. We worked fast and learnt soo much! After having wanted to blow glass and work with this medium for such a long time, it was a very fulfilling day. The family went above and beyond. They entertained my husband, son and dog in their beautiful garden whilst I got to play glass. I came away with two tumblers and a paper weight. Great day! Great people! Great space! Can’t recommend this enough. I was gifted it from my husband. It really was fantastic! Thank you all soo much x

Great fun and would highly recommend

My husband and I did a session here, it was great fun! We could pick what we wanted to make (within the capabilities of our skill!). Izach talked us through what we needed to do and helped us every step. Izach and Debby were both welcoming and easy to talk to. Everything was let's give it a go and see! Then if it didn't quite go right Izach was right there to fix it and let us go again. I would highly recommend!

Memorial Vases

We wanted to have some memorial vases made in memory of my mum. Debby and Izach helped guide us through the process of deciding on colours and designs with such sensitivity and compassion. Nothing was too much trouble.
The end results are amazing and something to be treasured. We can’t thank them enough.

I recently bought some glass flowers…

I recently bought some glass flowers from Fire Work for a vase that has stud on my window sill for far too long.
They are so beautiful - much better in real life than the pictures show.

Debby kept me updated with my order and made the experience very personal - and the parcel arrived well ahead of expected delivery timescales and in perfect condition.

Fantastic experience

Fantastic experience.
Izach and Debby made my childhood dream come true, teaching and assisting my friend and me, how to handle and shape molten glass.
Izach and Debby are friendly and welcoming, supplying much needed water (or juice) as it gets exceptionally hot in the workshop - even with two huge fans going.
Izach’s professional experience and guidance was excellent. We rolled, dyed, pulled and blew the glass into various shapes and sizes. We made three pieces: an amber paperweight ; a blue tumbler; and a pink flower. I have two on display in home and my friend took the third.
I loved it so much, I may just book another session, and strongly recommend this for anyone interested in glass blowing.

Highly recommended experience

We had a fabulous time with Fireworks Glassblowing, celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary in the most memorable way. Under Izach’s expert tuition, we each made a beautiful paperweight and two stunning glasses. Izach was a brilliant teacher, clear, patient, and encouraging throughout, always explaining what he was doing and guiding us with confidence.

The glassware we made is not only beautiful but also incredibly special to us. Every time we use the glasses, we’ll be reminded of the experience and the joy of making them ourselves. A truly unique and meaningful way to mark a special occasion. Highly recommended!

Incredible experience

Such an incredible experience, I went with my nan yesterday and we both enjoyed it so so much! We are already planning to make another trip up to make more beautiful pieces!! We got to make three items of our choice after being shown all the machinery and tools we could be using, and ended up with a paperweight, a vase and a bowl and couldn't be happier with our creations!!! Such a unique hands on experience with a perfect balance of independence and assistance, both izach and debby were patient and supportive, keeping us well involved in all of the steps in making our pieces. I would definitely recommend this experience to anyone thinking about it and we full heartedly plan on going back towards the end of summer for more glassblowing!!!

Blown away.

I am blown away by the experience we had whilst visiting Fire works glass studio.

My partner bought the glass blowing experience for me for my birthday last year. From the initial booking through to collecting our finished pieces it was so simple, easy, and friendly.

Debby met us on the day and instantly we felt in good company. After being greeted by the dogs and allowed to entre we went up to the office to run though a few formalities and Debby explained what to expect when then went on down and met Izach in the "Hot shop". It's in the name folks.... boy, was it hot. Izach went through a few safety do's and don'ts and then set about showing and guiding us through the day. Izzac is a master of his craft, and his passion really shone through. I felt completely at ease through the entire process.

Between us we made three pieces, and I am desperate to go back and make more.

If you are slightly intrigued by glass blowing or even a little crafty and enjoy making stuff, I urge you to book in and have a go.

What a truly amazing experience

Thank you, Debby, Izach, and doggos.

What an unforgettable unique…

What an unforgettable unique experience.
Me and my husband said it was one of the best things we have done.

We made a paper weight, vase and hanging ball ornament and once they were ready the next day, Debby posted them to us so now we can display them in our home.
We have highly recommended it to our friends and family because it was worth every penny and we had the best time.

Izach was so talented and confident in what he does and made us both feel safe and comfortable the whole time.

Thank you Fire Work Glass Studio.
