CLASS EXPERIENCE: Vino Tappo / Intro Class

Vino Tappo - a bottle stopper class *

Vino Tappo - also great for oil and vinegar bottles *

The Vino Tappo is an original product and class designed by the founding creators of the Glass Academy. You’ll enjoy your unique handcrafted glass project for years to come as you display it proudly in your home.

During this 1 hour experience you will get a behind the scenes look at our glass blowing studio, tour of the gallery, and create a unique glass keepsake in a safe environment.

To make the bottle stopper you will work colored pieces of glass into a “gather” of molten glass using the marver.  You will then twist, pull, and stretch the glass using tweezers to manipulate the color (which will create the design inside your topper). This is an entry level class, so no experience is necessary for this fun and unusual experience! We supply all the tools, color, and materials.  

* You will make ONE stopper per class. 

Remember, you can take the same class more than once. See how your work progresses, does it become easier? What did you/will you do differently in your next class?  Give your finished items away as gifts!!

Added perks for you!

Any class you come to and participate in, you’ll get 20% off gallery purchases that night, as well as when you come to pick up your work.  Ask for the special coupon when you come to the studio.
