**NEVER LEAVE A FLAME UNATTENDED. WEAR SAFETY GLASSES TO PROTECT EYES FROM HARMFUL LIGHT (link below), DO NOT TOUCH HOT GLASS, NEVER CROSS HANDS UNDER THE FLAME. ALWAYS FOLLOW MANUFACTURER'S INSTRUCTIONS. WORK IN A WELL VENTILATED AREA***
This video is made for my glass students at UCA but is open to all to take technical direction and inspiration from. This is another making method you can do at home during lock down. If you are thinking about exploring the possibilities of making glass botanics using the lampworking method this video shows you how! The purpose of this video is also to show you how to use home hacks to continue to create glass at home during the COVID-19 lockdown. If you have any feedback or questions then leave them in the comments below.
