The team at blowfish are so friendly. Really nice atmosphere and good selection of colours / types of coloured glass for the different effects. Very happy with how my paperweight turned out! Thank you Bethany and the team!

The taster glass blowing session was gifted to me for my birthday as a heritage craft that I have always wanted to try. I was not disappointed! The team provided clear instructions and also details about the glass making process, which I really enjoyed as someone who loves to learn. Given the hot equipment in the room, I felt completely safe and enjoyed being hands on with the tools to produce (if I do say so myself) a stunning paperweight. The colours and textures are beautiful and I am so impressed that something so lovely can be made in just 15 minutes. It was also very nice that family and friends were able to watch the workshop too to enjoy the experience. I hope to attend one of your full day workshops in the future! Thank you!

Over last weekend I attended two demonstrations at Blowfish. Both were totally amazing and informative. Could pull up a chair and watch these guys all day, everyday! The FifteenxFifteen exhibition is definitely worth a look. Amazing, creativity abounds. Also did a taster using hot glass with Bethany. It’s fired the obsession to do more. Will be looking to book an all day course in the future; it’s on the bucket list. Bethany & Elliot are doing wonderful things at Blowfish - go along and see for yourself.
