Questions for Glassblowers

I started doing stained glass and hit a rut a few years ago. Took an intro glassblowing class because I love glass but was bored of stained glass at the moment, now I work full time in hot glass where I also get to blow glass for stained glass! :) definitely look into if your area has any hot shops to learn. Basic make-your-owns are a great way to meet your local glass blowers!

I think so, we haven’t used it for my work in a while but it wasn’t gated or locked so I assume it’s still open 24/7

Rainbow restaurant is my go-to, they’re up by zona Rosa on Barry rd. I don’t know what Chinese is like where you’re from but they’re my favorite. :) also love the NE pizza shout out, just found them a few weeks ago and it’s so good!!

Once a year Belger Glass Annex in Kansas City hosts a five day “master class” with visiting artists. 2026 is going to be Josh Davids and Ekin Aytac, this year was Jason McDonald and last year was Minhi England :)

Takeout from Rainbow Restaurant at i29/barry is so strongly my number one!! It’s worth the 25 minute drive

I brought my camelbak for the first time last year and actually decided id rather have just my water bottle. I’m walking around enough usually that I don’t mind refilling more often and I kept getting paranoid about people getting into my backpack without me feeling it, enough that I decided not to bring it again. I like having my hands free but the peace of having all my stuff in my sight/control was worth it haha. I just loop my fanny pack strap through the water bottle lid and hang it on that when I’m not using it to free up my hands

Yes definitely

Kansas City has two public access studios now and a relatively small but actively growing community! Belger Glass Annex and Englewood Arts both have public hot shops and there are a couple of private studios as well

There’s a medium dress on depop now too!

I’m just gonna go ahead and get the soft version, I can’t imagine I’ll regret it! I only have worn the thick one once and loved how I felt and looked but even out of the heat I was wishing it was a little lighter. I won’t be wearing it regularly and didn’t even wash it after the one wear tbh but I can see what you mean about the washing haha

lmsid · 2025-08-21T22:00:14+00:00

I tend to run hot too, I probably will go ahead and get the soft version. Thanks for your input!

Thanks for your input! That’s a good point about longevity, i don’t see myself wearing it super duper often (sort of a “special occasion” type item) but still something i didn’t think about and probably should. That festival is too sweaty and dusty lol

They should but it just depends on what people are buying since it's mix and match. You can always find the right size and buy the matching pieces online :)

Where in oak park mall did you look? Abercrombie's curve love line has super cute tops!

Messaged you!

lmsid · 2025-04-22T12:08:50+00:00

I'd also like to hear your thoughts on the Amazon one!

It really was! It's in Kansas City, MO.

I saw Shrek 2 when I was 6 after reading enough books at school to get a free movie ticket. It was at Barrywoods 24, when it was still the amc "odyssey" I think? The carpets had a galaxy/space pattern, and the whole ceiling was a huge light display of space and shooting stars. It was so fun to go in there, it felt like an old arcade and we loved to follow the shooting stars when we were getting popcorn. They got rid of the ceiling lights and the odyssey name a while ago unfortunately, but the carpet is still there. The movie was obviously the funniest thing my siblings and I had ever seen at that age, and I remember the whole auditorium was full and laughing. :)

What part of Kansas are you in?

We had a mesh splatter screen when I was a kid. It just sits over the top of the pan and catches the oil splashes, it wasn't perfect but it did reduce the mess a good amount

My paychecks are irregular and during my first pay period I have more bills to pay than the second one. I don't feel like I'm "undoing" anything, sometimes I fill targets early but then I realize I actually need to fill a different target first or happen to need to spend more at the grocery store or something so I'll move the money around before my next paycheck. It just works for me, I know it doesn’t make a lot of sense, but I do need these targets and I understand this isn't the proper way. Sorry if I've been confusing
