Corning Museum of Glass

we finally made it to the

Corning Museum of Glass!

 for years I've been hearing about how fun and amazing this place is, and we loved it.

the girls were able to work with glass.

aftie made a windchime

and ella decorated a glass, then had it sandblasted.

 they sandblasted the glass cup in this machine.

 here's the finished product!

 here are some pictures afton took throughout the museum.

soooooo beautiful!

 pretty glass flowers

we watched demonstrations of glass breaking, glass blowing, etc.

it was so cool watching that melted, hot glass being shaped into all kinds of different things.

so glad we finally made the time to visit this place!
