We highly,highly recommend this…

We highly,highly recommend this fantastic experience.

As well as being lots of fun, the tutelage was excellent and we came away with some cracking glasswork, which the studio very kindly posted to our house in the North of Scotland.

If you want to spend a really enjoyable hour and a half learning some awesome skills from a fantastic company, then this is definitely for you 😀

Out of this world experience! Just amazing!

I have been before but this time I bought the experience for my dad’s birthday present. He has never mentioned going to a glass blowing experience but I knew he would absolutely love it. Once again the whole experience was fantastic! Debby made a wonderful gift voucher for my dad to open, which was very well received. Everybody loved Izach. His enthusiasm just makes the whole experience come alive. I literally cannot thank you both enough. We are all still talking about it right now over fish and chips haha thank you thank you thank you Izach and Debby

Great session glass blowing…

I would recommend this activity to everyone. Thoroughly enjoyed the glass blowing session with my husband. I made a paper weight and a vase. My husband made a whisky glass and a Xmas decoration for our grand daughter. We both had a lot of fun and it was great to be so creative.

New experiences

We decided to try Glass blowing just for a new experience.
Debby made the booking process smooth and simple. Efficient email replies, very organised and accommodating to suit the time we wanted.
Greeted by Debby in a beautiful location the administration on arrival was also painless and simple.
Izach was clearly passionate about his craft and imparted his knowledge on us being patient with us and answered my many questions! There is an incredible set up and the experience of creating our own products was thoroughly enjoyable.
Izach and Debby work so well together.
Shortly after leaving Debby sent many photos over she had taken barely being noticed doing so.
We asked for our products to be posted to us to save the journey back. The cost charged was good and the products arrived next day all very well packaged.
It was lovely to be able to take home your creations and have them on display.

Wow!

Wow, wow, wow! What a fabulous time. As a last minute idea Debbie was so helpful and accommodating sorting out glass blowing for 3 of us. When we arrived we were greeted by the very friendly Debbie and Izach.
Where to begin with Izach! So very talented at his craft and a very patient and informative teacher. We all made 2-3 pieces with some time added on as we couldn’t stop. It’s not as easy as Izach makes it look but with his help and expertise you are able to make some beautiful pieces as well as learning so much about the process. I cannot recommend their classes enough. Nothing is too much trouble so go along and have a blast. Debbie even supplied me with Lockets for my cough, amazing

Fabulous experience

Always wanted to have a go at glass blowing and was fortunate enough to spend a glorious 90 minutes in the hotshop at Fire Work with Isaac and Debby.
Glass, it turns out, is a fantastic medium to work with, it’s fascinating how easy it is to twist, turn, pull, blow and even suck into beautiful pieces.
I made a paper weight, obviously!! a flower, a bowl and a glorious little dish for my air plant to sit and in!
I’m so thrilled with my experience.
Have a go, you will not regret it!!

Amazing!

Amazing!
I booked this for my partner for his birthday and was a little concerned about the quality of the experience as I wanted this to be a special treat. Well, I didn’t need to worry at all, it was BRILLIANT!
Communication before the event was always prompt and Debby answered all my questions.
The place was easy to find with parking right outside. We were shown around, safety was top of their list, I watched in comfort with a coffee as my partner made a beautiful glass weight. We swapped over and then there was time for my partner to make another item. Every step of the glass blowing was explained fully by Izach.
Our items were ready to collect the next day.
I would definitely recommend this experience.

Five star experience

Wow, amazing experience, my family and I gifted the glass blowing experience to my mum, which I was lucky enough to join her on. We have always wanted to try glass blowing and with izach’s expert instruction we were able to make 2 beautiful paperweights and a glass. Izachs knowledge and guidance was second to none combined Debby hosting & assistance in the workshop made them a wonderful team. I can’t wait to book another experience. Thank you very much

Wow, amazing experience

Wow, absolutely amazing experience for our wedding anniversary to make / blow glass flowers, baubles and a glass. Great to learn about how glass objects are made, and how the colour goes into the objects. Isaacs and Debbie were very clear with instructions during the process of working with such hot materials. It was great to be able to choose and add colours to our items. Fantastic to have items the next day, to enjoy in our life.

Fabulous Valentine gift

Fabulous Valentine gift! I ordered one of Fire Work Glass Studio’s beautiful glass heart paperweights for a Valentine gift. Debby not only pulled out the stops to get it made and delivered on tine, I even had a little video of the glass being fired in the kiln! The piece was more substantial than I expected - and uniquely beautiful. They are all one offs. Confident he will love it! Thank you for a beautiful work of art and your professional service.

Beautiful deep pink heart paperweight

I won this beautiful paperwork. It's really well made and looks really pretty on my unit. I'm slightly obsessed and will purchase some in different colours for family as presents. The designs is gorgeous and a good weight - absolutely perfect!

This is the 2nd time that I have been…

This is the 2nd time that I have been to enjoy the glass blowing experience with Debby and Izach with a different friend this time, but my thoughts are the exactly the same, I would thoroughly recommend going and no doubt I will be back…
My earlier review-
Debby and Izach were very accommodating to guide us through our glass blowing experience. It was so fulfilling and fun. We learnt so much and know so little. Izach is an excellent teacher and both are very relaxed, patient and friendly.
The thought that went into a birthday treat was thoroughly gratifying. One of us couldn’t make the experience so we’ll have you return again to make some more ‘master pieces’.
The grounds of their studio and home are stunning and a pleasure to be in, their beautiful canine friends are adorable too.
I would totally recommend a visit to surprise yourself on what is possible in the hands of Izach and his unlimited knowledge and expertise.
We came away with sone lovely pieces of glass that I’ll be proud to show at home. Thank you for a great afternoon and will be back soon.

This was the most amazing experience

This was the most amazing experience, I have always wanted to try my hand at glass blowing and the Fire Work Glass studio made that dream come true. It was the greatest pleasure to meet Izach and Debbie.

Izach's enthusiasm and knowledge for glass blowing is infectious, his friendly motivational manner of guiding, teaching and giving fantastic feedback made an unforgettable experience.

Debbie was so lovely and was able to capture the whole experience with brilliant photos and an edited video so you can relive your workshop at home and show your friends and family.

I can't recommend the Fire Work Glass Studio enough, the 4 beautiful pieces we were able to create and take home will be cherished forever.

A totally engaging experience

Set in the beautiful surroundings of the Devon countryside the Fireworks glass studio is a true gem.
Izack & Debbie make a wonderful team, their knowledge is second to none. Izack has a way of imparting the salient information so you are empowered to complete the task at hand without feeling you are being instructed.
To top this whole experience off you create some unique pieces of glass to take home & remind you of the day for many years to come.
Definitely an experience not to miss.

The best experience

A fabulous experience and self made art to take home! Izack is a fabulous tutor and Debby runs the the amazing experience. We barely noticed the photos and video she took which just added to the day when we received them via WhatsApp only an hour or two after we left the 'hot shop'. We collected our glassware the following day and they were suitably protected.
Thank you so much, we loved it.
