My adult daughter and I were on a girls trip and wanted to have some shared experiences. We really enjoyed making our own paperweights and blown glass pumpkins. The experience was both very informative and enjoyable. We were pleasantly surprised by how truly hands on it was when we were making the paperweights. It provided us both with memories of a great shared experience and wonderful keepsakes to take home. Highly recommend doing this.
