Unleash your creativity in a hands-on glass flameworking workshop at Elemental Studios, located in the picturesque town of Motovun, Croatia. No prior experience is needed for this 90-minute session where you'll learn to craft unique glass pieces using an oxy-propane torch.

After a brief safety talk and demonstration, you’ll have the chance to create 2-5 whimsical ornaments, icicles, or beads that make perfect keepsakes or gifts. Enjoy the collaborative atmosphere and the excitement of creating your very own glass art.

Choose from different themes depending on the day of the week: Blown Glass Ornaments on Thursdays and Saturdays, Glass Beads on Fridays, and Twisted Icicles on Saturdays.
