I made my first paperweight at the West Michigan Glass Society in Kalamazoo this past Saturday and it was a blast. I was amazed at how much paperweight making was like making beads just on a much larger scale. Mine is a round one but some of the others used an optical mold to shape theirs and they are just as beautiful. You too can make a paperweight with no experience at the Glass Society, please click here if you are interested.
