Learn to create fused-glass cabochon gemstones using a variety of sparkling dichroic glass. Pieces may be transformed into necklaces, soulstones for trapping demons, or other forms of jewelry. During class, a number of techniques will be taught, including frit casting, finishing skills such as sawing and grinding, and methods for turning assorted materials into cohesive jewelry pieces. No glass experience is required, and all materials are provided.

Handmade, fused-glass pieces such as 10-inch Fluted Dog Head White Dessert Plate ($16.95), 16-inch Round Dog White Platter ($39.95), 16-inch White Round Logo, and set of four 4-inch White GT Coasters ($24).

Armstrong Glass Company

From its roots as a Georgian stained-glass manufacturer in 1977, the now international Armstrong Glass Company has slowly added more and more design elements to its inventory—from textured to fused to cabinet to iridescent glass. Each of Armstrong's handcrafted products differs slightly in coloring as it takes shape. This lends individuality to every piece, even if they’re identically designed. The company tackles custom projects with ease, such as tabletops, glass sinks, room dividers, and houses for people who don’t throw stones.

The Groupon Guide to: Playing Marbles

Marbles is a game believed to involve drawing a chalk circle and populating it with collectible glass marbles of varying color and size. Since the last person who actually knew how to play "marbles" passed away in 1956, modern game theoreticians can only speculate about the rules:

  • Draw a circle of chalk on the ground.
  • One player adds some, but not all, of their marbles.
  • Another player adds a portion of their marbles.
  • The players shake hands to agree that "marbles" is about to be played.
  • Marbles are rolled (flicked?) at one another to result in some marbles entering the circle, while others, through gentle collision, are pushed out.
  • A dog with an eye patch looks on warily, his loyalties unknown.
  • A play or move results in one player getting to keep all the marbles, hence the still relevant expression "This one is for all the marbles."
  • The players once again shake hands and return to their Victorian boys' academy, shipyard, or World War I trench, although one player's pockets, with every footstep, now clatter with the reminder that he has robbed the other player of the entirety of his worldly possessions.
  • The half-blind dog sets off alongside the nearest set of train tracks, disappearing in a cloud of sun-bleached dust.

Can you strike it big playing the highly lucrative game of marbles?
