Hand-Made Glass Craft and Design
Last week, Tom Rowney visited from Canberra to teach a week-long workshop with a focus on cane tumblers. It was a bit of a break from the regular routine. Here are some amateur photos of a few of the cups that I made. I’m getting some ideas for some bigger projects using similar techniques so keep checking in for that.
I just put the finishing touches on a bunch of Aerie bowls, vases and jugs and delivered them to the JamFactory Morphett street shop. Some of it will also be going to the Rundle mall shop. So come on in to check it out and take some home!
For anyone who as tried to email me in the past 10 days,
I am sorry to say that for some reason, the emails were forwarding to nowhere and, thus, bouncing back. I’m not exactly sure why it was happening but somewhere along the way, a wrong box got ticked. I’m sorry about that but I have readjusted the settings and am told everything should be sorted out in the next 48 hours. In the meantime, please be patient and try again later.
Again, I apologize for any inconvenience.
Thanks,
Katie
*Update* Email is now working again so feel free to contact me. Thanks for your patience!
So this is from last year but its an example of some of the cooler stuff that we do at the JamFactory. Each year we have a “Family Day” as part of the Adelaide Fringe Festival and I believe an additional one later in the year. The last two times, at least, we have had a drawing competition for the kids that ends with us making the winning drawings in glass. This video from last years event shows me and Maddy assisting the amazing Tom Moore in making the two winners: A flying saucer flown by a ghost owl and a six-legged creature. The kids got to watch the whole thing. It’s definitely one of my favorite things to do here. Unfortunately, there is no video for this year’s event.
Check out the recent photography I had done of the Aerie Series. Its a series that I’ve been developing since the end of last year and will be up for review by the JamFactory next week. Hopefully, that means it will be available from JamFactory outlets and others in no time.

I would like to apologize for the inconsistency of measuring standards on this site. Half of the work was made in the U.S. where I noted the size in imperial units and the other half in Australia where I used metric. When I have more time, I will either standardize the site or provide conversions throughout. Until then, I’m sorry for the inconvenience.
