 So this past weekend my sister and I went Glass Blowing.  It was so cool.  We got to pick out the colors and actually make it.  We decided that we were going to make glass flowers.  The studio actually has some really cool work too.  Mcfadden Art Glass   Here are some photos of the adventure.

 Dana adding her colors, it was weird playing with the molten glass but definitely a lot of fun.

 I know they actually let us throw our flowers in the fire.  It was warm in there.

The owner showing us how to pick out the flower petals... It was a lot harder than I expected.

 Both Dana and I dropped our flowers at least once as we were trying to pull them.  Fortunately, they were attached so we didn't break them.

After we went glass blowing we went to lunch next door at the Glass Grill.  It was good food with a low key feel.  The glass grill has amazing chandeliers that were created by Tim McFadden (the owner of McFadden Art Glass)

 The finished product!

 I think I'm going to go again sometime and maybe make a vase next time or another flower (I really like the flowers)... they were just so much fun.  So it really wasn't that expensive and they let you make quite a few different items. 

Looking for something new?

So, I have learned that there is always something new or fun to do in the city that we live.  Here I'm going to talk about places I have been and fun stuff to do.  There is a lot to do in this city for cheap or free or just plain fun.  Some would be great date ideas or fun for the family. 

Hope you find it helpful.
