Now it’s your turn! Get some tubing and you, too, will be able to make a magic mushroom! Michael works in soft glass, but you could just as easily try it in boro.  After the tubing work, Michael shows you how to create a mirror finish on the inside surface using silver nitrate and a reducing agent.

It’s a ton of fun! If you want to learn from Michael in person, come with us to Lauscha on our annual visit. This year’s Lauscha Tour is August  9th-16th. Contact us if you want more information! We always have a great time with our Christmas ornament workshop, where we get to blow our own ornaments, then silver and paint them.

If you’d like to see more of Michael at work in the meantime, just order “Deck the Halls with Michael Haberland” and you’ll see mold blown ornaments as well as the traditional birds, etc. Find out more about it HERE.
