Wonderful craft class

Joy_L, Mar 2026

Highly recommend. Wonderful experience with very talented, English speaking teacher. Our glasses are beautiful.

I created a glass for my sister in honor of her dog.

You should choose this experience over ring making. I cut out the designs and polished them in a sander. The instructor was well versed in English and other Japanese students admired my work and clapped for me.

Response from Host, May 2025

Thank you for your recommendation. Cutting may have been a little difficult, but you did a great job. I heard you're a Cubs fan. I hope they win this year. If you come to Japan again, please stop by.

Fun experience in Tokyo.

Cynthia_O, Apr 2025

We had a great time. The process was explained and was very easy. the owner was very helpful and patient. It was an interesting process and the sand blasting part took a bit to get but our pieces turned out beautiful. There were many options and you can be as creative as you want. We did have a hard time finding the studio but the communication was great.

Response from Host, Apr 2025

I'm glad you enjoyed it. Anyone can make wonderful works with the sandblasting technique, so it's called "magic glass art." I'm sure it will be a great souvenir from Japan. Please use it regularly.
