Visit to Transjö Hytta

I love this quaint studio.  The little, wooden blowing room has numerous tall windows facing out towards the surrounding forest.  As I stood inside feeling the warmth of the furnace, I could glance out to see the fluffy snow falling to the ground.  The atmosphere was surreal.

1. Pick open bottom

2. Attach vacuum to blowpipe

3. Turn on vacuum

And that is how you suck glass out from the furnace and into your glass piece!

4. Push color rod up inside the clear glass for a suspended effect
