A little bit of Hygge

Creating a cosy and happy home feels more essential than ever in a fast-paced and often stressful world. Today, I am the lucky owner of three exquisite glass mushrooms and a home where the mushrooms give me all the hygge I could ever wish for. Whether they are simply placed amongst the plants on our hearth or backlit by small tea lights, they create a spectacular display.

Debbie and Izach’s attention to detail, from the point of sale to the collection of the mushrooms, was faultless. I cannot recommend Fire Work Glass Studio highly enough. Fire Work Glass make perfect gifts for either yourself or for family members.

Izach is a hugely talented artist and teacher. We had a wonderful afternoon making 3 beautiful pieces, learning and laughing. We lost 1 piece due to an overnight power cut in the kiln, but Izach remade it in the same colours and the wonderful Debby posted everything to us to save a trip back.

My husband booked this as a gift for my Birthday. I had always wanted to have a go at it ever since I was little, and I wasnt disappointed. The experience was amazing and we loved it. Izach and Debby were full of knowledge, explained everything so it was easy for us to understand, and the location is beautiful. We made a vase, a bauble, a bowl, a flower and a paper weight. Was fun learning different techniques and using
all different colours. I would definitely recommend you go and give it a go. Thank you both for the perfect birthday experience.

Marvellous experience

Spent a wonderful time making glass with Izach & Debby. Izach is experienced, enthusiastic & great teacher. We learned a lot about the process and achieved so much more than expected. I bought this session as a birthday gift for my husband who made a paperweight,candle holder & a Christmas bauble and I made a flower. We are delighted with them and highly recommend you try Fire Work.

Birthday Gift

I ordered a gift for my sister but had trouble with the website when it came to leaving details and payment, not Fire Work Glass Studio's fault btw.
I was able to contact them directly. I have to say they went above and beyond to help, sending a photo of the item I wanted so I could choose (all hand made) as it was a birthday gift they asked if I wanted a message written, which was a lovely thing to have done.
They sent me a photo of the parcel all ready to go and helped with sorting out the payment (PayPal take note).
The lovely lady I delt with was a joy!!
I'd give 6 stars if I could☺️
Thank you D.

Mind-blowing glass-blowing !

What a fantastic morning.I would definitely recommend this glassblowing experience,which was a wonderful birthday gift for me. It was so interesting and hands-on, with Izach explaining everything clearly. He is such a skilled professional….very impressive. He and Debby work so well together and we were so thrilled with and proud of our pieces! A mind-blowing, glass-blowing experience!

We did their 1.5 hour experience and got to make three lovely pieces. It was so amazing to be able to bring away something we'd made ourselves. An absolutely brilliant day! Thank you so much.

An awesome, informative and joyous experience

I came along to the glass blowing experience primarily to keep my husband company (the voucher for the experience was his present). I had thought my anxiety would prevent me from actually having a go, but the no-pressure encouragement from Izach and Debby meant I not only ended up joining in with some of the processes that I felt comfortable with, but I thoroughly enjoyed doing so and came away with that amazing buzz of having surprised myself by achieving something that I didn't think I'd be able to! My husband totally enjoyed the glass blowing experience too!

First, and hopefully not last, glass blowing experience

From start to finish both Debby and Izach made us feel comfortable doing something that neither of us had ever done before. It was a lovely birthday gift from my wife, and it was good that she got creative in the process too. The effortless ability of Izach allowed us, who had never tried this sort of thing before, to create four pieces of beautiful glassware that I'm proud to show-off at home.
Really looking forward to having another go.

A family business that really care, beautiful handmade glass work

My contact with this family run business was 5* from start to finish. I wanted a special piece made with my Dad's ashes and Debby was happy to discuss a slightly different style than they had previously made. She was very kind and considerate in all contact and kept me informed throughout the process. The result, made by Izach, is absolutely stunning. Even better than I could have hoped for. It arrived well packaged and with a lovely personal note. I would highly recommend if you are looking for a unique memorial piece.

Stunning studio glass

We went to Fire Works glass sale on a sunny afternoon. The glass pieces glinted oh so temptingly! It was very hard to choose as there was a big range both of prices and styles. What made it all even more special was the warm welcome, including a cuppa, and the chance to discuss how the pieces were created with the hugely talented Izach. His enthusiasm and love for his craft shone as he spoke making it fascinating. I highly recommend Fire Works Glass. Fair prices for beautiful work. Beware though, it charms the money from your pockets!

A truly memorable experience

My husband and I were given a voucher for an experience at Fire Work - and loved it! It was so different from anything we had ever tried before. Izach was brilliant explaining how things worked and guided us through to making some wonderful glass pieces of our choice. Debby took many photos and sent a video of our session. I loved it so much, I went back! This time, I made some completely different Items and am incredibly happy with them all. It was a truly amazing experience, thoroughly recommended.

We had a great time at Fire Work Glass Studio. They are friendly and welcoming. Despite never having worked with glass before, we managed to create some beautiful pieces. This was thanks to the patient and clear guidance from Izach and reassurance from Debby.
