Winter Wonderland in Glass

Celebrate the magic of the holiday season with a sparkling fused glass workshop led by Chelsea Rousso at WMODA. Inspired by Christmas, Hanukkah and winter wonderlands, this creative workshop invites participants to make beautiful glass decorations and handcrafted gifts.

Experience the joy of working with colorful glass as Chelsea introduces the fascinating art of glass fusing. Participants will design their own festive creations, arranging pieces of glass into imaginative compositions that will be fused together in a kiln. Each finished piece becomes a unique keepsake, capturing the brilliance of light and color.

Participants can create luminous glass ornaments to hang on their Christmas trees or at their windows. Shimmering snowflakes, icicles, and evergreens inspire decorations that evoke the wonder of winter. When sunlight illuminates them, these colorful creations will brighten homes throughout the holidays and beyond.

In time for Hanukkah, the workshop also offers the opportunity to create decorative glass mezuzah cases, a blessing for any Jewish home. A cherished tradition, mezuzahs are placed on the doorposts throughout a Jewish home as symbols of faith and heritage. These colorful glass creations combine artistic expression with deep meaning, making them a special gift for someone you love or a personal expression of faith and beauty in your own home.

Create two glass ornaments, two mezuzahs, or four icicles!
